English translation

2502. It was narrated that Ibn ‘Umar said: “The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ enjoined Zakâh of Ramaḍân upon the free and the slave, male and female, a Ṣâ[1] of dates or a Ṣâ of barley, so the people considered that equivalent to half a Ṣâ of wheat.” (Ṣaḥīḥ)

Arabic text

2500 - أَخْبَرَنَا عِمْرَانُ بْنُ مُوسَى، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْوَارِثِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ: «فَرَضَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ زَكَاةَ رَمَضَانَ عَلَى الْحُرِّ وَالْعَبْدِ، وَالذَّكَرِ وَالْأُنْثَى، صَاعًا مِنْ تَمْرٍ، أَوْ صَاعًا مِنْ شَعِيرٍ، فَعَدَلَ النَّاسُ بِهِ نِصْفَ صَاعٍ مِنْ بُرٍّ»

  1. 1

    [1] A Ṣâ is a measurement of volume, not weight: It is four scoops of the average man's hands held together. A Mudd is one-fourth of that or one scoop with the two hands held together.

Commentary

1. This charity or Sadaqah was called the Zakâh of Ramaḍân, because it becomes obligatory due to the fasts of the month of Ramaḍân; and it is called Sadaqatul Fitr because its disbursement is obligated Eidul Fitr. 2. The obligation of Sadaqatul Fitr upon a slave denotes that it would be compulsory on his master on his behalf. It shall be disbursed by the owner providing he is a Muslim.
