Narrated Anas:
Abu Bakr , wrote to me about the Zakat which Allah had ordered His
Apostle to observe: Whoever had to pay Jahda (Jahda means a
four-year-old she-camel) as Zakat from his herd of camels and he had
not got one, and he had Hiqqa (three-year-old she-camel), that Hiqqa
should be accepted from him along with two sheep if they were
available or twenty Dirhams (one Durham equals about 1/4 Saudi
Riyal) and whoever had to pay Hiqqa as Zakat and he had no Hiqqa but
had a Jadha, the Jadha should be accepted from him, and the Zakat
collector should repay him twenty Dirhams or two sheep; and whoever
had to pay Hiqqa as Zakat and he had not got one, but had a Bint
Labun (two-year-old she-camel), it should be accepted from him along
with two sheep or twenty Dirhams; and whoever had to pay Bint Labun
and had a Hiqqa, that Hiqqa should be accepted from him and the
Zakat collector should repay him twenty Dirhams or two sheep; and
whoever had to pay Bint Labun and he had not got one but had a Bint
Makhad (one-year-old she camel), that Bint Makhad should be accepted
from him along with twenty Dirhams or two sheep.

Narrated Anas:
When Abu Bakr; sent me to (collect the Zakat from) Bahrein, he wrote
to me the following:-- (In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the
Merciful). These are the orders for compulsory charity (Zakat) which
Allah's Apostle had made obligatory for every Muslim, and which
Allah had ordered His Apostle to observe: Whoever amongst the
Muslims is asked to pay Zakat accordingly, he should pay it (to the
Zakat collector) and whoever is asked more than that (what is
specified in this script) he should not pay it; for twenty-four
camels or less, sheep are to be paid as Zakat; for every five camels
one sheep is to be paid, and if there are between twenty-five to
thirty-five camels, one Bint Makhad is to be paid; and if they are
between thirty-six to forty-five (camels), one Bint Labun is to be
paid; and if they are between forty-six to sixty (camels), one Hiqqa
is to be paid; and if the number is between sixty-one to
seventy-five (camels), one Jadh'a is to be paid; and if the number
is between seventy-six to ninety (camels), two Bint Labuns are to be
paid; and if they are from ninety-one to one-hundred-and twenty
(camels), two Hiqqas are to be paid; and if they are over
one-hundred and-twenty (camels), for every forty (over
one-hundred-and-twenty) one Bint Labun is to be paid, and for every
fifty camels (over one-hundred-and-twenty) one Hiqqa is to be paid;
and who ever has got only four camels, has to pay nothing as Zakat,
but if the owner of these four camels wants to give something, he
can. If the number of camels increases to five, the owner has to pay
one sheep as Zakat. As regards the Zakat for the (flock) of sheep;
if they are between forty and one-hundred-and-twenty sheep, one
sheep is to be paid; and if they are between one-hundred-and-twenty
to two hundred (sheep), two sheep are to be paid; and if they are
between two-hundred to three-hundred (sheep), three sheep are to be
paid; and for over three-hundred sheep, for every extra hundred
sheep, one sheep is to be paid as Zakat. And if somebody has got
less than forty sheep, no Zakat is required, but if he wants to
give, he can. For silver the Zakat is one-fortieth of the lot (i.e.
2.5%), and if its value is less than two-hundred Dirhams, Zakat is
not required, but if the owner wants to pay he can.'

Narrated Anas:
Abu Bakr wrote to me what Allah had ordered His Apostle (about
Zakat) which goes: Neither an old nor a defected animal, nor a
male-goat may be taken as Zakat except if the Zakat collector wishes
(to take it).

Narrated Abu Huraira:
Abu Bakr said, "By Allah! If they (pay me the Zakat and) with-hold
even a she-kid which they used to pay during the life-time of
Allah's Apostle, I will fight with them for it." 'Umar said, "It was
nothing but Allah Who opened Abu Bakr's chest towards the decision
to fight, and I came to know that his decision was right."
Volume 2, Book 24, Number 537
Narrated Ibn Abbas:
When Allah's Apostle (p.b.u.h) sent Muadh to Yemen, he said (to
him), "YOU are going to people of a (Divine) Book. First of all
invite them to worship Allah (alone) and when they come to know
Allah, inform them that Allah has enjoined on them, five prayers in
every day and night; and if they start offering these prayers,
inform them that Allah has enjoined on them, the Zakat. And it is to
be taken from the rich amongst them and given to the poor amongst
them; and if they obey you in that, take Zakat from them and avoid
(don't take) the best property of the people as Zakat."
Volume 2, Book 24, Number 538
Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri :
Allah's Apostle said, "No Zakat is imposed on less than five Awsuq
of dates; no Zakat is imposed on less than five Awaq of silver, and
no Zakat is imposed on less than five camels."
Volume 2, Book 24, Number 539
Narrated Abu Dhar:
Once I went to him (the Prophet ) and he said, "By Allah in Whose
Hands my life is (or probably said, 'By Allah, except Whom none has
the right to be worshipped) whoever had camels or cows or sheep and
did not pay their Zakat, those animals will be brought on the Day of
Resurrection far bigger and fatter than before and they will tread
him under their hooves, and will butt him with their horns, and
(those animals will come in circle): When the last does its turn,
the first will start again, and this punishment will go on till
Allah has finished the judgments amongst the people."
Volume 2, Book 24, Number 540
Narrated Ishaq bin 'Abdullah bin Al Talha:
I heard Anas bin Malik saying, "Abu Talha had more property of
date-palm trees gardens than any other amongst the Ansar in Medina
and the most beloved of them to him was Bairuha garden, and it was
in front of the Mosque of the Prophet . Allah's Apostle used to go
there and used to drink its nice water." Anas added, "When these
verses were revealed:--'By no means shall you Attain righteousness
unless You spend (in charity) of that Which you love. ' (3.92) Abu
Talha said to Allah's Apostle 'O Allah's Apostle! Allah, the
Blessed, the Superior says: By no means shall you attain
righteousness, unless you spend (in charity) of that which you love.
And no doubt, Bairuha' garden is the most beloved of all my property
to me. So I want to give it in charity in Allah's Cause. I expect
its reward from Allah. O Allah's Apostle! Spend it where Allah makes
you think it feasible.' On that Allah's Apostle said, 'Bravo! It is
useful property. I have heard what you have said (O Abu Talha), and
I think it would be proper if you gave it to your Kith and kin.' Abu
Talha said, I will do so, O Allah's Apostle.' Then Abu Talha
distributed that garden amongst his relatives and his cousins."
Volume 2, Book 24, Number 541
Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri
On 'Id ul Fitr or 'Id ul Adha Allah's Apostle (p.b.u.h) went out to
the Musalla. After finishing the prayer, he delivered the sermon and
ordered the people to give alms. He said, "O people! Give alms."
Then he went towards the women and said. "O women! Give alms, for I
have seen that the majority of the dwellers of Hell-Fire were you
(women)." The women asked, "O Allah's Apostle! What is the reason
for it?" He replied, "O women! You curse frequently, and are
ungrateful to your husbands. I have not seen anyone more deficient
in intelligence and religion than you. O women, some of you can lead
a cautious wise man astray." Then he left. And when he reached his
house, Zainab, the wife of Ibn Masud, came and asked permission to
enter It was said, "O Allah's Apostle! It is Zainab." He asked,
'Which Zainab?" The reply was that she was the wife of Ibn Mas'ub.
He said, "Yes, allow her to enter." And she was admitted. Then she
said, "O Prophet of Allah! Today you ordered people to give alms and
I had an ornament and intended to give it as alms, but Ibn Masud
said that he and his children deserved it more than anybody else."
The Prophet replied, "Ibn Masud had spoken the truth. Your husband
and your children had more right to it than anybody else."
Volume 2, Book 24, Number 542

Volume 2, Book 24, Number 544
Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri :
Once the Prophet sat on a pulpit and we sat around him. Then he
said, "The things I am afraid of most for your sake (concerning what
will befall you after me) is the pleasures and splendors of the
world and its beauties which will be disclosed to you." Somebody
said, "O Allah's Apostle! Can the good bring forth evil?" The
Prophet remained silent for a while. It was said to that person,
"What is wrong with you? You are talking to the Prophet (p.b.u.h)
while he is not talking to you." Then we noticed that he was being
inspired divinely. Then the Prophet wiped off his sweat and said,
"Where is the questioner?" It seemed as if the Prophet liked his
question. Then he said, "Good never brings forth evil. Indeed it is
like what grows on the banks of a water-stream which either kill or
make the animals sick, except if an animal eats its fill the Khadira
(a kind of vegetable) and then faces the sun, and then defecates and
urinates and grazes again. No doubt this wealth is sweet and green.
Blessed is the wealth of a Muslim from which he gives to the poor,
the orphans and to needy travelers. (Or the Prophet said something
similar to it) No doubt, whoever takes it illegally will be like the
one who eats but is never satisfied, and his wealth will be a
witness against him on the Day of Resurrection."
Volume 2, Book 24, Number 545
Narrated 'Amr bin Al-Harith:
Zainab, the wife of 'Abdullah said, "I was in the Mosque and saw the
Prophet (p.b.u.h) saying, 'O women ! Give alms even from your
ornaments.' " Zainab used to provide for 'Abdullah and those orphans
who were under her protection. So she said to 'Abdullah, "Will you
ask Allah's Apostle whether it will be sufficient for me to spend
part of the Zakat on you and the orphans who are under my
protection?" He replied "Will you yourself ask Allah's Apostle ?"
(Zainab added): So I went to the Prophet and I saw there an Ansari
woman who was standing at the door (of the Prophet ) with a similar
problem as mine. Bilal passed by us and we asked him, 'Ask the
Prophet whether it is permissible for me to spend (the Zakat) on my
husband and the orphans under my protection.' And we requested Bilal
not to inform the Prophet about us. So Bilal went inside and asked
the Prophet regarding our problem. The Prophet (p.b.u.h) asked, "Who
are those two?" Bilal replied that she was Zainab. The Prophet said,
"Which Zainab?" Bilal said, "The wife of 'Adullah (bin Masud)." The
Prophet said, "Yes, (it is sufficient for her) and she will receive
a double rewards (for that): One for helping relatives, and the
other for giving Zakat."
Volume 2, Book 24, Number 546
Narrated Zainab,:
(the daughter of Um Salama) My mother said, "O Allah's Apostle!
Shall I receive a reward if I spend for the sustenance of Abu
Salama's offspring, and in fact they are also my sons?" The Prophet
replied, "Spend on them and you will get a reward for what you spend
on them."
Volume 2, Book 24, Number 547
Narrated Abu Huraira
Allah's Apostle (p.b.u.h) ordered (a person) to collect Zakat, and
that person returned and told him that Ibn Jamil, Khalid bin
Al-Walid, and Abbas bin 'Abdul Muttalib had refused to give Zakat."
The Prophet said, "What made Ibn Jamll refuse to give Zakat though
he was a poor man, and was made wealthy by Allah and His Apostle ?
But you are unfair in asking Zakat from Khalid as he is keeping his
armor for Allah's Cause (for Jihad). As for Abbas bin 'Abdul
Muttalib, he is the uncle of Allah's Apostle (p.b.u.h) and Zakat is
compulsory on him and he should pay it double."
Volume 2, Book 24, Number 548
Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri:
Some Ansari persons asked for (something) from Allah's Apostle
(p.b.u.h) and he gave them. They again asked him for (something) and
he again gave them. And then they asked him and he gave them again
till all that was with him finished. And then he said "If I had
anything. I would not keep it away from you. (Remember) Whoever
abstains from asking others, Allah will make him contented, and
whoever tries to make himself self-sufficient, Allah will make him
self-sufficient. And whoever remains patient, Allah will make him
patient. Nobody can be given a blessing better and greater than
patience."
Volume 2, Book 24, Number 549
Narrated Abu Huraira :
Allah's Apostle said, "By Him in Whose Hand my life is, it is better
for anyone of you to take a rope and cut the wood (from the forest)
and carry it over his back and sell it (as a means of earning his
living) rather than to ask a person for something and that person
may give him or not."
Volume 2, Book 24, Number 550
Narrated Az-Zubair bin Al'Awwam:
The Prophet (p.b.u.h) said, "It is better for anyone of you to take
a rope (and cut) and bring a bundle of wood (from the forest) over
his back and sell it and Allah will save his face (from the
Hell-Fire) because of that, rather than to ask the people who may
give him or not."

Narrated 'Urwa bin Az-Zubair and Said bin Al-Musaiyab:
Haklm bin Hizam said, "(Once) I asked Allah's Apostle (for
something) and he gave it to me. Again I asked and he gave (it to
me). Again I asked and he gave (it to me). And then he said, "O
Hakim! This property is like a sweet fresh fruit; whoever takes it
without greediness, he is blessed in it, and whoever takes it with
greediness, he is not blessed in it, and he is like a person who
eats but is never satisfied; and the upper (giving) hand is better
than the lower (receiving) hand." Hakim added, "I said to Allah's
Apostle , 'By Him (Allah) Who sent you with the Truth, I shall never
accept anything from anybody after you, till I leave this world.' "
Then Abu Bakr (during his caliphate) called Hakim to give him his
share from the war booty (like the other companions of the Prophet
), he refused to accept anything. Then 'Umar (during his caliphate)
called him to give him his share but he refused. On that 'Umar said,
"O Muslims! I would like you to witness that I offered Hakim his
share from this booty and he refused to take it." So Hakim never
took anything from anybody after the Prophet till he died.
Volume 2, Book 24, Number 552
Narrated 'Umar:
Allah's Apostle used to give me something but I would say to him,
"would you give it to a poorer and more needy one than l?" The
Prophet (p.b.u.h) said to me, "Take it. If you are given something
from this property, without asking for it or having greed for it
take it; and if not given, do not run for it."
Volume 2, Book 24, Number 553
Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Umar
The Prophet said, "A man keeps on asking others for something till
he comes on the Day of Resurrection without any piece of flesh on
his face." The Prophet added, "On the Day of Resurrection, the Sun
will come near (to, the people) to such an extent that the sweat
will reach up to the middle of the ears, so, when all the people are
in that state, they will ask Adam for help, and then Moses, and then
Muhammad (p.b.u.h) ." The sub-narrator added "Muhammad will
intercede with Allah to judge amongst the people. He will proceed on
till he will hold the ring of the door (of Paradise) and then Allah
will exalt him to Maqam Mahmud (the privilege of intercession,
etc.). And all the people of the gathering will send their praises
to Allah.

Narrated Ash-sha'bi:
The clerk of Al-Mughira bin Shu'ba narrated, "Muawiya wrote to
Al-Mughira bin Shu'ba: Write to me something which you have heard
from the Prophet (p.b.u.h) ." So Al-Mughira wrote: I heard the
Prophet saying, "Allah has hated for you three things:
1. Vain talks, (useless talk) that you talk too much or about others.
2. Wasting of wealth (by extravagance)
3. And asking too many questions (in disputed religious matters) or
asking others for something (except in great need). (See Hadith No.

Narrated Sad (bin Abi Waqqas) :
Allah's Apostle distributed something (from the resources of Zakat)
amongst a group of people while I was sitting amongst them, but he
left a man whom I considered the best of the lot. So, I went up to
Allah's Apostle and asked him secretly, "Why have you left that
person? By Allah! I consider him a believer." The Prophet said, "Or
merely a Muslim (Who surrender to Allah)." I remained quiet for a
while but could not help repeating my question because of what I
knew about him. I said, "O Allah's Apostle! Why have you left that
person? By Allah! I consider him a believer. " The Prophet said, "Or
merely a Muslim." I remained quiet for a while but could not help
repeating my question because of what I knew about him. I said, "O
Allah's Apostle! Why have you left that person? By Allah! I consider
him a believer." The Prophet said, "Or merely a Muslim." Then
Allah's Apostle (p.b.u.h) said, "I give to a person while another is
dearer to me, for fear that he may be thrown in the Hell-fire on his
face (by renegating from Islam)."

Narrated Abu Huraira
Allah's Apostle said, "The poor person is not the one who goes round
the people and ask them for a mouthful or two (of meals) or a date

his needs and whose condition is not known to others, that others
may give him something in charity, and who does not beg of people."

Narrated Abu Huraira

than to ask others for something."

Narrated Abu Humaid As-Sa'idi
We took part in the holy battle of Tabuk in the company of the
Prophet and when we arrived at the Wadi-al-Qura, there was a woman
in her garden. The Prophet asked his companions to estimate the
amount of the fruits in the garden, and Allah's Apostle estimated it
at ten Awsuq (One Wasaq = 60 Sa's) and 1 Sa'= 3 kg. approximately).
The Prophet said to that lady, "Check what your garden will yield."
When we reached Tabuk, the Prophet said, "There will be a strong
wind to-night and so no one should stand and whoever has a camel,
should fasten it." So we fastened our camels. A strong wind blew at
night and a man stood up and he was blown away to a mountain called
Taiy, The King of Aila sent a white mule and a sheet for wearing to
the Prophet as a present, and wrote to the Prophet that his people
would stay in their place (and will pay Jizya taxation.) (1) When
the Prophet reached Wadi-al-Qura he asked that woman how much her
garden had yielded. She said, "Ten Awsuq," and that was what Allah's
Apostle had estimated. Then the Prophet said, "I want to reach
Medina quickly, and whoever among you wants to accompany me, should
hurry up." The sub-narrator Ibn Bakkar said something which meant:
When the Prophet (p.b.u.h) saw Medina he said, "This is Taba." And
when he saw the mountain of Uhud, he said, "This mountain loves us
and we love it. Shall I tell you of the best amongst the Ansar?"
They replied in the affirmative. He said, "The family of
Bani-n-Najjar, and then the family of Bani Sa'ida or Bani Al-Harith
bin Al-Khazraj. (The above-mentioned are the best) but there is
goodness in all the families of Ansar."

irrigated by the well, half of an Ushr (i.e. one-twentieth) is
compulsory (as Zakat on the yield of the land)."

in charity, and in case he had purchased something (unknowingly) he
would give it in charity again.

Narrated 'Umar:
Once I gave a horse in Allah's Cause (in charity) but that person

sell it at a low price. So, I asked the Prophet (p.b.u.h) about it.
He said, "Neither buy, nor take back your alms which you have given,
even if the seller were willing to sell it for one Dirham, for he
who takes back his alms is like the one who swallows his own vomit."

be worshipped but Allah, and that Muhammad is His Apostle. And if
they obey you in that, tell them that Allah has enjoined on them
five prayers in each day and night. And if they obey you in that
tell them that Allah has made it obligatory on them to pay the Zakat
which will be taken from the rich among them and given to the poor
among them. If they obey you in that, then avoid taking the best of
their possessions, and be afraid of the curse of an oppressed person
because there is no screen between his invocation and Allah."

payment of the debt became due) but he did not find a boat, so he
took a piece of wood and bored it and put 1000 diners in it and
threw it into the sea. The creditor went out and took the piece of
wood to his family to be used as fire-wood." (See Hadith No. 488 B,

urine (as medicine) but they killed the shepherd and drove away all
the camels. So Allah's Apostle sent (men) in their pursuit to catch
them, and they were brought, and he had their hands and feet cut,
and their eyes were branded with heated pieces of iron and they were
