 The Book of Zakah

باب: العَرْضُ فِي الزّكَاة

CHAPTER 21. Zakât may be paid in kind (and not in cash).

732. عَنْ أَنَسٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ: أَنّ أَبَا بَكْرٍ الصّديق رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ: كَتَبَ لَهُ الّتِي أَمَرَ اللهُ رَسُولَهُ صلى الله عليه وسلم: (وَمَنْ بَلَغَتْ صَدَقَتُهُ بِنْتَ مَخَاضٍ وَلَيْسَتْ عِنْدَهُ, وَعِنْدَهُ بِنْتُ لَبُونٍ, فَإِنّهَا تُقْبَلُ مِنْهُ, وَيُعْطِيهِ المُصَدّقُ عِشْرِينَ دِرْهَمًا أَوْ شَاتَيْنِ, فَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ عِنْدَهُ بِنْتُ مَخَاضٍ عَلَى وَجْهِهَا, وَعِنْدَهُ ابْنُ لَبُونٍ, فَإِنّهُ يُقْبَلُ مِنْهُ, وَلَيْسَ مَعَهُ شَيْءٌ). رواه البخاري: 1448 732.

Narrated Anas رضى الله عنه : Abu Bakr رضى الله عنه wrote to me what Allâh had instructed His Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم to do regarding the one who had to pay one Bint Makhâd (i.e. one year old shecamel) as Zakât, and he did not have it but had got Bint Labun (two year old shecamel). (He wrote that) it could be accepted from him as Zakât, and the collector of Zakât would return him twenty dirhams or two sheep; and if the Zakât payer had not a Bint Makhâd, but he had Ibn Labun (a two year old hecamel) then it could be accepted as his Zakât, but he would not be paid anything. (2:528O.B.) SUBJECTS COVERED

HADEETH 732

From this hadeeth many of the principles related to giving commodities in zakat are gained.

You cannot understand this hadeeth simply from the English translation.

Anas bin Malik رضى الله عنه was appointed a zakah collector in Bahrain.

The original borders of Bahrain

A document containing the instructions of zakah as given by Rasulullah  صلى الله عليه وسلم.

The importance of camels in Arabia.

The number of animals one must own before becoming eligible for zakah.

The uniqueness of the Arabic language

The best of wealth is given for zakah.

Female animals are worth more than male animals.

Is zakah payable for a commodity by that very same commodity? Or can it be paid by anything else in lieu of that commodity?

The angel went back to his Lord, and said, You sent me to a slave who does not want to die. Allâh restored his eye and said, Go back and tell him (i.e. Musa (Moses) عليه السلام) to place his hand over the back of an ox, for he will be allowed to live for a number of years equal to the number of hairs coming under his hand. (So the angel came to him and told him the same). Then Musâ (Moses) asked, O my Lord! What will be then? He said, Death will be then. He said, (Let it be) now. He asked Allâh that He bring him near the Sacred Land at a distance of a stone’s throw. Allâh’s Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said, Were I there I would show you the grave of Musâ (Moses) by the way near the red sandhill. (2:423O.B.)
