Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: This verse in which Allah Almighty has said: "And do not intend to give the inferior of it that you would spend," the narrator states: By this is meant Ja‘rur and Lawn bin Habeeq. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade accepting them in zakat.

Sayyiduna ‘Attab bin Asid (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) instructed me:“I should estimate the grapevines of the Thaqif tribe to determine how much fruit is on their vines, then their zakat will be paid in the form of grapes, just as the zakat of date palms is paid in the form of dates.”This narration is also transmitted with another chain.

Sayyiduna Miswar bin Makhramah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates from Sayyiduna ‘Attab bin Asid (may Allah be pleased with him): The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered that the grapevines of the Thaqif tribe should be assessed in the same way as the date palms (with their fruit), and then zakat should be taken from them in the form of grapes, just as zakat from date palms is collected in the form of dates.

This same narration is also transmitted with another chain from Sayyiduna ‘Attab bin Asid. Sayyiduna ‘Attab bin Asid (may Allah be pleased with him) reports: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered the estimation of grapes:“Just as the estimation of dates is done, and their zakat is collected in the form of dried dates (munqa), just as the zakat of date palms is collected in the form of dates.”Some other narrators have also followed in transmitting this.

Sayyiduna ‘Attab bin Asid (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said regarding the zakat of grapes:“Its estimation will be made in the same way as the estimation of dates on date palms is made, and then its zakat will be paid in the form of raisins (or dried grapes), just as the zakat of date palms is paid in the form of dates.”Another narrator has also reported this in corroboration.

Sayyiduna ‘Attab bin Asid (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave instructions regarding the zakat of grapes, then after that he narrated the hadith as previously mentioned.

Sayyiduna ‘Attab bin Asid (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to send someone to those people, who would estimate their grapes and fruit produce (and Zakat would be collected accordingly).

Sayyiduna ‘Attab bin Asid (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) ordered that the produce of the grapevine be estimated and zakat be collected in the form of grapes, just as the produce of dates is estimated (or dates are collected after estimation).

Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: When Allah Almighty granted the region of Khaybar to His Messenger as fay’ (war booty), the Messenger of Allah allowed them (the Jews) to remain there and made an agreement that the produce of the land would be divided equally between those Jews and the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). Then the Prophet (peace be upon him) sent Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Rawahah (may Allah be pleased with him), who estimated the produce there and then said:“O Jews! Among Allah’s creation, you are the most disliked by me. You killed Allah’s Prophets, and you attributed lies to Allah. But my dislike for you will not lead me to wrong you in any way. I have estimated that the date produce is twenty thousand wasqs. If you wish, you may take it according to this estimate, and if you do not agree, then I will take that much.”They said:“It is because of this justice and fairness that the heavens and the earth stand firm. We accept this estimate.”So Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) said:“Then give me that amount of produce (i.e., make the payment).”

Sayyiduna ‘Attab bin Asid (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered that the produce of the grapevine be assessed and zakat be taken in the form of grapes, just as the produce of dates is assessed (or dates are taken after estimation).
