Hazrat Amr bin Shu'aib narrates from his father and grandfather that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: On the land irrigated by running water, 'ushr (one-tenth) is due, and on the land irrigated by drawing water with camels, half of 'ushr (one-twentieth) is due.

It is narrated from Imam Sha'bi that the Holy Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, wrote to the people of Yemen: For land that is irrigated by rain from the sky or by flowing water, and produces wheat, barley, raisins, or dates, one-tenth (ushr) is due on it. And for land that is irrigated by drawing water with camels, half of one-tenth (half ushr) is due on it.

It is narrated from Hazrat Hakam that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) wrote to Hazrat Mu'adh in Yemen: On the land irrigated by rainwater or flowing water, 'ushr (one-tenth) is due, and on the land irrigated by camels or by buckets, half of 'ushr (one-twentieth) is due.

It is narrated from Hazrat Salih bin Abu Al-Khalil that the Holy Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, established the rule that for any land irrigated by rainwater, a flowing spring, or by camels, or for land that does not require water but receives moisture from the earth, the full tithe (one-tenth) is due on all of them. And for land irrigated by a rope (bucket), half of the tithe (one-twentieth) is due on that land.

Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him, may Allah honor his face) said: The land that is irrigated by rainwater or flowing water is subject to 'ushr (one-tenth), and the land that is irrigated by water drawn with a bucket is subject to half of 'ushr (one-twentieth).

It is narrated from Hazrat Qatadah that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) established the rule that for land irrigated by rain, a flowing spring, or by camels, or for land that does not require water and receives moisture from the earth, the full tithe (one-tenth) is due on all of them. And for land irrigated by rope (bucket), half of the tithe (one-twentieth) is due. And Hazrat Qatadah used to say that for fruits that are measured by volume, either the full tithe or half tithe is due.

10359 - He said: And Qatadah said: It was said regarding what is measured of (the fruit) (1) a tenth and half of a tenth.

It is narrated from Hazrat Nafi that Hazrat Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said that there is zakat on fruits and zakat on crops, whether it is dates, wheat, barley, or any type of barley, or if it is irrigated by a canal, or irrigated by spring water, or irrigated by rainwater, on all of these is ‘ushr, that is, one-tenth out of ten. And on land that is irrigated by buckets, there is half ‘ushr, that is, one out of twenty. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) wrote and sent to Harith bin Abd Kallal and other people in Yemen that the wealth (land) of the believers which is irrigated by spring water or by rainwater, on it is ‘ushr, and that which is irrigated by buckets, on it is half ‘ushr.

10361 - The Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم wrote to the people of Yemen, to al-Harith ibn ‘Abd Kallal and those with him from the people of Yemen from Ma‘afir and Hamdan: "(That) upon the believers from the charity of their wealth is a tenth of what is irrigated by springs and rainwater, and upon what is irrigated (by waterwheels) is half (of a tenth)."

Hazrat Ibn Jurayj says that I asked Hazrat Ata whether the land that is irrigated by channeling water from wells—whether it is for dates, grapes, or other crops (grains)—does it have the same ruling? He replied: It is subject to ‘ushr (one-tenth).
