حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ حَکِيمٍ الْأَوْدِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ السَّلَامِ بْنُ حَرْبٍ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ أَبِي هِنْدٍ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي أَرْبَعِينَ شَاةً شَاةٌ إِلَی عِشْرِينَ وَمِائَةٍ فَإِذَا زَادَتْ وَاحِدَةً فَفِيهَا شَاتَانِ إِلَی مِائَتَيْنِ فَإِنْ زَادَتْ وَاحِدَةً فَفِيهَا ثَلَاثُ شِيَاهٍ إِلَی ثَلَاثِ مِائَةٍ فَإِنْ زَادَتْ فَفِي کُلِّ مِائَةٍ شَاةٌ لَا يُفَرَّقُ بَيْنَ مُجْتَمِعٍ وَلَا يُجْمَعُ بَيْنَ مُتَفَرِّقٍ خَشْيَةَ الصَّدَقَةِ وَکُلُّ خَلِيطَيْنِ يَتَرَاجَعَانِ بِالسَّوِيَّةِ وَلَيْسَ لِلْمُصَدِّقِ هَرِمَةٌ وَلَا ذَاتُ عَوَارٍ وَلَا تَيْسٌ إِلَّا أَنْ يَشَائَ الْمُصَّدِّقُ
ابن ماجہ · Hadith 1807
It was narrated from Ibn 'Umar, from that the Prophet P.B.U.H: "For forty sheep, one sheep, up to one hundred and twenty. If there is one more, then two sheep, up to two hundred. If there is one more, then three sheep, up to three hundred. If there are more than that, then for every hundred one sheep. Do not separate a combined flock and do not combine separate flocks for fear of Sadqah. Each partner (who has a share in a combined flock) should pay in proportion to his shares. And the Zakat collector should not accept any decrepit or defective animal, nor any male goat, unless he wishes to." (Hasan)
