1791 - حَدَّثَنَا بَكْرُ بْنُ خَلَفٍ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُوسَى قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ وَاقِدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، وَعَائِشَةَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، «كَانَ يَأْخُذُ مِنْ كُلِّ عِشْرِينَ دِينَارًا فَصَاعِدًا نِصْفَ دِينَارٍ، وَمِنَ الْأَرْبَعِينَ دِينَارًا دِينَارًا»

Commentary
The horses kept for work, and the slaves for the service are not subject to Zakât. But if a person trades in horses and slaves, then he should pay Zakât after estimating their current value like other goods for trade. The quantity of gold on which Zakât is levied is twenty Dinâr, which is equal to 92 grams (as said by Shaikh Ibn Bâz, ﷺ, Majmu'ah Fatâwa, vol: 14, page: 99). The rates of Zakât levied on gold and silver is one fortieth. For example: If a person owns 100 grams of gold, he must pay two and a half grams of gold or its value in Zakât. The amount of cash money on which Zakât is levied is equal to that of gold, because the current system of currency is based on gold.
