أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَعِيلُ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ الْحَکَمِ بْنِ عُتَيْبَةَ عَنْ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ مُخَيْمِرَةَ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُرَحْبِيلَ عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ سَعْدِ بْنِ عُبَادَةَ قَالَ کُنَّا نَصُومُ عَاشُورَائَ وَنُؤَدِّي زَکَاةَ الْفِطْرِ فَلَمَّا نَزَلَ رَمَضَانُ وَنَزَلَتْ الزَّکَاةُ لَمْ نُؤْمَرْ بِهِ وَلَمْ نُنْهَ عَنْهُ وَکُنَّا نَفْعَلُهُ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 2512
It was narrated that Qais bin Saad bin ‘Ubadah said: “We used to fast on ‘Aslthra’ and give Zakatul-Fitr, and when the command to fast in Ramadan was revealed, and the command to give Zakah was revealed, we were neither commanded to give it, nor told not to do so, and we used to do it.” (Sahih)
