حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ قَيْسٍ الْفَرَّاءِ، عَنْ عِيَاضِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي سَرْحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، قَالَ:
كُنَّا نُخْرِجُ صَدَقَةَ الْفِطْرِ إِذْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ صَاعًا مِنْ طَعَامٍ، أَوْ صَاعًا مِنْ تَمْرٍ، أَوْ صَاعًا مِنْ شَعِيرٍ، أَوْ صَاعًا مِنْ زَبِيبٍ، أَوْ صَاعًا مِنْ أَقِطٍ، وَلَمْ نَزَلْ كَذَلِكَ حَتَّى قَدِمَ عَلَيْنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ مِنَ الشَّامِ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ قَدْمَةً، وَكَانَ فِيمَا كَلَّمَ بِهِ النَّاسَ: مَا أَرَى مُدَّيْنِ مِنْ سَمْرَاءِ الشَّامِ إِلَّا تَعْدِلُ صَاعًا مِنْ هَذِهِ، فَأَخَذَ النَّاسُ بِذَلِكَ. قَالَ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ: لَا أَزَالُ أُخْرِجُهُ كَمَا كُنْتُ أُخْرِجُهُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَبَدًا، أَوْ مَا عِشْتُ

✧ We used to give the charity of Fitr, when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was among us, as a saa' of food, or a saa' of dates, or a saa' of barley, or a saa' of raisins, or a saa' of aqit. And we continued to do so until Mu'awiyah came to us from Syria to Madinah on a visit, and among what he said to the people was: I do not think that two mudds of Syrian wheat are equivalent except to a saa' of this. So the people adopted that. Abu Sa'id said: I will continue to give it as I used to give it at the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ forever, or as long as I live.
