Sunan Abu Dawud :: Book# 9 :: Hadith# 1567 Narrated Ali ibn AbuTalib: Al-Harith al-A’war reported from Ali. Zuhayr said: I think, the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: “Pay a fortieth. A dirham is payable on every forty, but you are not liable for payment until you have accumulated two hundred dirhams. When you have two hundred dirhams, five dirhams are payable, and that proportion is applicable to larger amounts. “Regarding sheep, for every forty sheep up to one hundred and twenty, one sheep is due. But if you possess only thirty- nine, nothing is payable on them.” He further narrated the tradition about the sadaqah (zakat) on sheep like that of az-Zuhri. “Regarding cattle, a yearling bull calf is payable for every thirty, and a cow in her third year for forty, and nothing is payable on working animals. Regarding (the zakat on) camels, he mentioned the rates that az-Zuhri mentioned in his tradition. He said: “For twenty-five camels, five sheep are to be paid. If they exceed by one, a she-camel in her second year is to be given. If there is no she-camel in her second year, a male camel in its third year is to be given, up to thirty-five. If they exceed by one a she-camel in her third year is to be given, up to forty-five. If they exceed by one, a she-camel in her fourth year which is ready to be covered by a bull-camel is to be given.” He then transmitted the rest of the tradition like that of az-Zuhri. He continued: If they exceed by one, i.e. they are ninety-one to hundred and twenty, two she-camels in their fourth year, which are ready to be covered by a bull-camel, are to be given. If there are more camels than that, a she-camel in her fourth year is to be given for every fifty. Those which are in one flock are not to be separated, and those which are separate are not to be brought together. An old sheep, one with a defect in the eye, or a billy goat is not to be accepted as a sadaqah unless the collector is willing. As regards agricultural produce, a tenth is payable on that which is watered by rivers or rain, and a twentieth on that which is watered by draught camels.” The version of Asim and al-Harith says: “Sadaqah (zakat) is payable every year.” Zuhayr said: I think he said “Once a year”. The version of Asim has the words: “If a she-camel in her second year is not available among the camels, nor is there a bull-camel in its third year, ten dirhams or two goats are to be given.” Sunan Abu Dawud :: Book# 9 :: Hadith# 1568 Narrated Ali ibn AbuTalib: The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: “When you possess two hundred dirhams and one year passes on them, five dirhams are payable. Nothing is incumbent on you, that is, on gold, till it reaches twenty dinars. When you possess twenty dinars and one year passes on them, half a dinar is payable. Whatever exceeds, that will be reckoned properly.” (The narrator said: I do not remember whether the words “that will be reckoned properly” were uttered by All himself or he attributed them to the Prophet (peace be upon him). No zakat is payable on property till a year passes on it. But Jarir said: Ibn Wahb (sub-narrator) added to this tradition from the Prophet (peace be upon him): “No zakat is payable on property until a year passes away on it.” Sunan Abu Dawud :: Book# 9 :: Hadith# 1570 Narrated Mu’awiyah ibn Haydah: The Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him) said: For forty pasturing camels, one she-camel in her third year is to be given. The camels are not to be separated from reckoning. He who pays zakat with the intention of getting reward will be rewarded. If anyone evades zakat, we shall take half the property from him as a due from the dues of our Lord, the Exalted. There is no share in it (zakat) of the descendants of Muhammad (peace be upon him). Sunan Abu Dawud :: Book# 9 :: Hadith# 1576 Narrated Sa’r ibn Disam: Muslim ibn Shu’bah said: Nafi’ ibn Alqamah appointed my father as charged ’affaires of his tribe, and commanded him to collect sadaqah (zakat) from them. My father sent me to a group of them; so I came to an aged man called Sa’r ibn Disam I said: My father has sent me to you to collect zakat from you. He asked: What kind of animals will you take, my nephew? I replied: We shall select the sheep and examine their udders. He said: My nephew, I shall narrate a tradition to you. I lived on one of these steppes during the time of the Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him) along with my sheep. Two people riding a camel came to me. They said to me: We are messengers of the Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him), sent to you so that you may pay the sadaqah (zakat) on your sheep. I asked: What is due from me for them? They said: One goat. I went to a goat which I knew was full of milk and fat, and I brought it to them. They said: This is a pregnant goat. The Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him) prohibited us to accept a pregnant goat. I asked: What will you take then? They said: A goat in its second year or a goat in its third year. I then went to a goat which had not given birth to any kid, but it was going to do so. I brought it to them. They said: Give it to us. They took it on the camel and went away. Sunan Abu Dawud :: Book# 9 :: Hadith# 1587 Narrated Abdullah ibn Amr ibn al-’As: The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: There is to be no collecting of sadaqah (zakat) from a distance, nor must people who own property remove it far away, and their sadaqahs are to be received in their dwelling. Sunan Abu Dawud :: Book# 9 :: Hadith# 1605 Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas: The Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him) prescribed the sadaqah (alms) relating to the breaking of the fast as a purification of the fasting from empty and obscene talk and as food for the poor. If anyone pays it before the prayer (of ‘Id), it will be accepted as zakat. If anyone pays it after the prayer, that will be a sadaqah like other sadaqahs (alms). Sunan Abu Dawud :: Book# 9 :: Hadith# 1610 Narrated Abdullah ibn Umar: The people during the lifetime of the Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him) used to bring forth the sadaqah at the end of Ramadan when closing the fast one sa’ of barley whose straw is removed, or of raisins. Abdullah said: When Umar (Allah be pleased with him) succeeded, and the wheat became abundant, Umar prescribed half a sa’ of wheat instead of all these things. Sunan Abu Dawud :: Book# 9 :: Hadith# 1631 Narrated Ata ibn Yasar: The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: Sadaqah may not be given to rich man, with the exception of five classes: One who fights in Allah’s path, or who collects it, or a debtor, or a man who buys it with his money, or a man who has a poor neighbour who has been given sadaqah and gives a present to the rich man.
