٦٧٨ - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، أَخْبَرَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ زَكَرِيَّا ، عَنِ الْحَجَّاجِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ ، عَنِ الْحَكَمِ بْنِ عُتَيْبَةَ ، عَنْ حُجَيَّةَ بْنِ عَدِيٍّ ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ «أَنَّ الْعَبَّاسَ» سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي تَعْجِيلِ صَدَقَتِهِ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَحِلَّ فَرَخَّصَ لَهُ فِي ذَلِكَ.

Commentary
If the property reaches the amount on which Zakāt is due but the period of one year has not yet passed, in this case paying the Zakāt early (before passing the whole year) is disputed. 1. Imām Abū Ḥanīfah, Ash-Shāfi'ī, Ahmad and Ishāq are of the view that if a property reaches the amount, subject to Zakāt, paying Zakāt on it before passing the whole year is correct and this view is the authentic one. 2. It is not right according to Imām Mālik and Sufyān Ath-Thaurī. (Tuhfat Al-Ahwadhī: 2/30)
