Arabic text

1823 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ مُوسَى، عَنْ أَبِي سَيَّارَةَ الْمُتَعِيُّ، قَالَ: قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنَّ لِي نَحْلًا، قَالَ: «أَدِّ الْعُشْرَ» ، قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، احْمِهَا لِي، فَحَمَاهَا لِي

Commentary

a. The Companion had honeybees, means that the honeybees would make hives in some of his trees. b. Protected means that he was allotted those hives and that none should take honey from the hives in his trees without his permission. c. One may collect honey from the beehives in the trees belonging to no one. d. Ten percent for Zakât is due on honey. If one has ten containers of honey he should give one container in Zakât.
