حَدَّثَنَا الْهَيْثَمُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ الْجُهَنِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْجُعْفِيُّ عَنْ زَائِدَةَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ أَبِي رَوَّادٍ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ کَانَ النَّاسُ يُخْرِجُونَ صَدَقَةَ الْفِطْرِ عَلَی عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَاعًا مِنْ شَعِيرٍ أَوْ تَمْرٍ أَوْ سُلْتٍ أَوْ زَبِيبٍ قَالَ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ فَلَمَّا کَانَ عُمَرُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ وَکَثُرَتْ الْحِنْطَةُ جَعَلَ عُمَرُ نِصْفَ صَاعٍ حِنْطَةً مَکَانَ صَاعٍ مِنْ تِلْکَ الْأَشْيَائِ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 1614
Narrated Abdullah ibn Umar: The people during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to bring forth the sadaqah at the end of Ramadan when closing the fast one sa' of barley whose straw is removed, or of raisins. Abdullah said: When Umar (Allah be pleased with him) succeeded, and the wheat became abundant, Umar prescribed half a sa' of wheat instead of all these things.
