Sunan Ibn Majah 1826 (Book 8, Hadith 44) #31178
The Commandment of Sadaqatul-Fitr

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) commanded Muslims to give Sadaqatul-Fitr, which is a charity of one Sa of barley or dates, for every Muslim regardless of their gender or status.

It was narrated that: Umar said: "The Messenger of Allah enjoined Sadaqatul-Fitr, one Sa, of barley or one Sa of dates for every Muslim, free or slave, male or female".
حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ، حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكُ بْنُ أَنَسٍ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ فَرَضَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ ـ صَدَقَةَ الْفِطْرِ صَاعًا مِنْ شَعِيرٍ أَوْ صَاعًا مِنْ تَمْرٍ عَلَى كُلِّ حُرٍّ أَوْ عَبْدٍ ذَكَرٍ أَوْ أُنْثَى مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ

QUICK LESSONS:
Give charity according to the commandment from Prophet Muhammad PBUH .

EXPLANATIONS:
The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) commanded Muslims to give Sadaqatul-Fitr, which is a charity given at the end of Ramadan. This charity is obligatory on every Muslim regardless of their gender or status and it should be given in the form of one Sa’a, which is equivalent to 3 kilograms, either in barley or dates. This act serves as an expression of gratitude towards Allah for His blessings and mercy throughout the year and also helps those who are less fortunate by providing them with food during Eid al-Fitr. It teaches us that we should always be generous and help those in need no matter what our circumstances are.
