No Sadaqah on Small Quantities

SUMMARY: Sadaqah is not required to be paid on less than five Awsuq, Dhawd or Awaq.

It was narrated from Abu Sa'eed Al-Khudri that the Messenger of Allah said: "No Sadaqah is due on less than five Awsuq,1 and no Sadaqah is due on less than five Dhawd (head of camel), and no Sadaqah is due on less than five Awaq".2
أَخْبَرَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ يَحْيَى، ح وَأَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، وَشُعْبَةَ، وَمَالِكٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ يَحْيَى، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ ‏ "‏ لَيْسَ فِيمَا دُونَ خَمْسَةِ أَوْسُقٍ صَدَقَةٌ وَلاَ فِيمَا دُونَ خَمْسِ ذَوْدٍ صَدَقَةٌ وَلاَ فِيمَا دُونَ خَمْسَةِ أَوَاقٍ صَدَقَةٌ
