[2285] 19 - (...) 'Iyâd bin 'Abdullâh bin Sa'd bin Abû Sarh narrated that he heard Abû Sa'eed Al-Khudrî say: "While the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ was among us, we would pay Zakât Al-Fitr, on behalf of everyone; young and old, free and slave, of three types: A Ṣâ' of dates, a Ṣâ' of cottage cheese, or a Ṣâ' of barley. We continued to pay it like that until Mu'âwiyah came, and he thought that two Mudd of wheat were equivalent to a Ṣâ' of dates." Abû Sa'eed said: "As for me, I will continue to pay it like that."

19 - (985) حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي عِيَاضُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ سَعْدِ بْنِ أَبِي سَرْحٍ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيَّ، يَقُولُ: " كُنَّا نُخْرِجُ زَكَاةَ الْفِطْرِ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِينَا، عَنْ كُلِّ صَغِيرٍ وَكَبِيرٍ، حُرٍّ وَمَمْلُوكٍ، مِنْ ثَلَاثَةِ أَصْنَافٍ: صَاعًا مِنْ تَمْرٍ، صَاعًا مِنْ أَقِطٍ، صَاعًا مِنْ شَعِيرٍ " فَلَمْ نَزَلْ نُخْرِجُهُ كَذَلِكَ، حَتَّى كَانَ مُعَاوِيَةُ: «فَرَأَى أَنَّ مُدَّيْنِ مِنْ بُرٍّ تَعْدِلُ صَاعًا مِنْ تَمْرٍ» قَالَ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ: «فَأَمَّا أَنَا فَلَا أَزَالُ أُخْرِجُهُ كَذَلِكَ»
