Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : The third and final question: What are the crops and fruits on which zakah is obligatory, and what is the evidence for this? When the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) sent Mu'adh ibn Jabal to Yemen and ordered him, among other things, to collect zakah from them, he said to him regarding crops: These four are what the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered Mu'adh to collect zakah from their owners, and he forbade him from taking it from anything else. He said: These are the types for which the Wise Lawgiver made zakah obligatory. This is the answer to what was on that sheet.
Do not take charity except from four: wheat, barley, raisins, and dates.
لا تأخذ الصدقة إلا من أربع : من القمح ، والشعير ، والزبيب والتمرDo not take zakah from them except from four: wheat, barley, raisins, and dates.
لا تأخذ منهم الزكاة إلا من أربع : القمح ، والشعير ، والزبيب ، والتمر
