حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الدَّرَابَجِرْدِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يَزِيدَ، حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ، حَدَّثَنَا بَكْرٌ، - هُوَ ابْنُ وَائِلٍ - عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ ثَعْلَبَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، أَوْ قَالَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ ثَعْلَبَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم ح وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى النَّيْسَابُورِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ، عَنْ بَكْرٍ الْكُوفِيِّ، قَالَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى هُوَ بَكْرُ بْنُ وَائِلِ بْنِ دَاوُدَ أَنَّ الزُّهْرِيَّ، حَدَّثَهُمْ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ ثَعْلَبَةَ بْنِ صُعَيْرٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ قَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم خَطِيبًا فَأَمَرَ بِصَدَقَةِ الْفِطْرِ

صَاعِ تَمْرٍ أَوْ صَاعِ شَعِيرٍ عَنْ كُلِّ رَأْسٍ زَادَ عَلِيٌّ فِي حَدِيثِهِ أَوْ صَاعِ بُرٍّ أَوْ قَمْحٍ بَيْنَ اثْنَيْنِ - ثُمَّ اتَّفَقَا - عَنِ الصَّغِيرِ وَالْكَبِيرِ وَالْحُرِّ وَالْعَبْدِ ‏

'Abd Allah bin Tha'labah ibn Su'ayr reported on the authority of his father:

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) stood and gave a sermon; he commanded to give sadaqah, at the end of Ramadan when the fasting is closed, one sa' of dried dates or of barley payable by every person. The narrator Ali added in his version: "or one sa' of wheat to be taken from every two." Both the chains of narrators are then agreed upon the version: "payable by young and old, freeman and slave."

Reported by Abu Dawud (No. 1620).
