عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ قَيْسٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي عِيَاضُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ سَعْدِ بْنِ أَبِي سَرْحٍ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيَّ يَقُولُ: "
كُنَّا نُخْرِجُ إِذْ كَانَ فِينَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ زَكَاةَ الْفِطْرِ عَلَى كُلِّ صَغِيرٍ وَكَبِيرٍ، حُرٍّ وَمَمْلُوكٍ صَاعًا مِنْ أَقِطٍ، صَاعًا مِنْ تَمْرٍ، صَاعًا مِنْ شَعِيرٍ، صَاعًا مِنْ زَبِيبٍ، فَلَمْ نَزَلْ نُخْرِجُهُ كَذَلِكَ حَتَّى قَدِمَ مُعَاوِيَةُ حَاجًّا - أَوْ مُعْتَمِرًا - فَكَلَّمَ النَّاسَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ، فَكَانَ فِيمَا كَلَّمَهُمْ بِهِ أَنْ قَالَ: أَرَى مُدَّيْنِ مِنْ سَمْرَاءِ الشَّامِ تَعْدِلُ بِصَاعٍ مِنْ تَمْرٍ، فَأَخَذَ النَّاسُ مُدَّيْنِ ". قَالَ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ: فَأَمَّا أَنَا فَلَا أَزَالُ أُخْرِجُهُ كَمَا كُنْتُ أُخْرِجُهُ أَبَدًا
Translation
✧ We used to give, when the Messenger of God ﷺ was among us, zakat al-fitr on behalf of every young and old, free and slave: a sa' of dried curd, a sa' of dates, a sa' of barley, a sa' of raisins. We continued to give it like that until Mu'awiya came as a pilgrim - or as one performing 'umra - and spoke to the people from the pulpit. Among what he said to them was: I think two mudds of Syrian wheat are equivalent to a sa' of dates. So the people adopted two mudds. Abu Sa'id said: As for me, I will continue to give it as I used to give it forever.
