2451. Bahz bin Hākīm narrated from his father that his grandfather said: “I heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ say: ‘With regard to grazing camels, for every forty a Bint Labūn. No differentiation is to be made between camels when calculating them. Whoever gives it seeking reward will be rewarded for it. Whoever refuses, we will take it and half of his camels, as one of the rights of our Lord. And it is not permissible for the family of Muḥammad ﷺ to have any of them.’” (Ḥasan)
2449 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُعْتَمِرٌ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ بَهْزَ بْنَ حَكِيمٍ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، يَقُولُ: «فِي كُلِّ إِبِلٍ سَائِمَةٍ مِنْ كُلِّ أَرْبَعِينَ ابْنَةُ لَبُونٍ، لَا تُفَرَّقُ إِبِلٌ عَنْ حِسَابِهَا، مَنْ أَعْطَاهَا مُؤْتَجِرًا لَهُ أَجْرُهَا، وَمَنْ مَنَعَهَا فَإِنَّا آخِذُوهَا، وَشَطْرَ إِبِلِهِ عَزْمَةً مِنْ عَزَمَاتِ رَبِّنَا، لَا يَحِلُّ لِآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْهَا شَيْءٌ»

(For detail, see Hadīth 2446) Imām An-Nasāʿī has drawn the inference for the theme of the chapter from the grazing camels, because the camels which are kept for domestic use are kept in pens and are given fodder, and in reality there is no Zakâh on them. Apart from camels, there is also no Zakâh on commodities held for personal use, no matter how expensive they could be!
