Charity Requirements

SUMMARY: No charity is required on any amount of money, dates, or camels that is less than five.

It was narrated that Abu Saeed Al-Khudri said: "The Messenger of Allah said: 'No Sadaqah is due on anything less than five Awaq, no Sadaqah is due on less than five Dhawd (head of camel), and no Sadaqah is due on less than five Awsuq".1 2476. It was narrated from Abu Sa 'eed Al-Khudri that the Messenger of Allah said: "No Sadaqah is due on less than five Awsuq of dates, no Sadaqah is due on less than five Awaq of silver, and no Sadaqah is due on less than five Dhawd (head) of camels.
أَخْبَرَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَبِيبِ بْنِ عَرَبِيٍّ، عَنْ حَمَّادٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، - وَهُوَ ابْنُ سَعِيدٍ - عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ يَحْيَى، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ "‏ لَيْسَ فِيمَا دُونَ خَمْسَةِ أَوَاقٍ صَدَقَةٌ وَلاَ فِيمَا دُونَ خَمْسِ ذَوْدٍ صَدَقَةٌ وَلَيْسَ فِيمَا دُونَ خَمْسِ أَوْسُقٍ صَدَقَةٌ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith explains the requirements for charity according to the Prophet Muhammad. He said that no charity is required on any amount of money, dates, or camels that is less than five. This means that if someone has four Awaq of silver or four Awsuq of dates or four Dhawd of camels then they do not have to give a portion away as charity. However, if they have more than five then they must give a portion away as charity in order to fulfill their religious obligations and help those in need. The Prophet Muhammad also taught us about the importance of giving back and helping others in need through his teachings and actions.
