The discussion regarding the amount of the nisab for grains and fruits.

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : What is the amount of the nisab for grains and fruits? Brother? Yes, that is right.

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : Yes, according to what the author estimated?

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : One hundred and forty? No, one hundred and thirty, yes, good, 'Abd al-Mannan?

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : There is a difference between one hundred and sixty and one hundred and thirty.

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : Are you sure? What do you say?

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : Correct, good, how much did we estimate it in kilograms, 'Abd Allah? Six hundred and twelve kilograms of dense wheat, good, what is your opinion if the item is light, if the item is light, does its weight decrease or increase?

The questioner : It neither decreases nor increases ... .

The Shaykh : The question that is considered is dense wheat, because it is good wheat, but if the item is light, do we reduce the weight or increase the weight?

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : So there is no difference between dense wheat and others, yes, come on, Salim?

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : For the light one, its weight is increased.

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : Let it be ... we did not understand.

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : The important thing is, if it is light, do we reduce the weight or increase the weight? Zuhayr?

The questioner : We reduce the weight.

The Shaykh : The weight is reduced, yes.

The questioner : If it is like a vessel.

The Shaykh : Let us leave ... to the vessels, we have not reached weighing, but if we want to consider it by weight.

The questioner : If it is by weight, it neither increases nor decreases ... .

The Shaykh : No, this is a mistake, look, everyone, if the item is light, the weight decreases, and if it is heavy, the weight must increase, why? Because the heavy one has a small volume and the light one...

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : Originally, measuring by volume is considered, originally measuring by volume is considered, meaning, for example, if we take one thousand and six hundred Iraqi pounds of dense wheat, then for the heavy thing that is heavier than wheat, we must increase it, let it be two thousand, because what is considered in measuring by volume is the size, take something light like barley, for example, and measure a sa' from it, then take dense wheat and measure a sa' from it, which is heavier? Dense wheat is heavier, or not? Yes, so whatever is lighter, we must increase the weight so that they are equal.

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : It decreases, yes, whatever is heavier, we must increase the weight so that it becomes a sa', and for this reason the jurists (may Allah have mercy on them) said the phrase: "And they should be cautious in the weight of the heavy", because the heavy one's weight is heavier, but the consideration is, as we told you yesterday ... previously, that we take, that we weigh dense wheat, how much?

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : How many kilograms?

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : The sa' ... .

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : Forty-two kilograms, multiply it by three hundred, six hundred and twelve, we take six hundred and twelve kilograms of dense wheat and put it in a vessel or vessels, then we consider what is other than wheat by these vessels, because what is considered is measuring by volume.

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : Yes?

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : Light or heavy, yes, if you consider measuring by volume, it is the size, light or heavy, good, if we have a date palm that bears fruit twice a year, are its fruits combined with each other? Yes?

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : Who is speaking, you, what Allah willed, you are picking, you are a roadblocker, from the roadblockers, yes? You?

The questioner : Some of it is combined with the rest.

The Shaykh : Good, and the two years?

The questioner : ... The consideration is the lunar year.

The Shaykh : The consideration is the lunar year, good, dates are of different types, are some types combined with others, Musa?

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : No, no, I mean to complete the nisab, if a person has three types, each type being one-third of the nisab, are some of them combined with the rest?

The questioner : No, they are not combined.

The Shaykh : They are not combined.

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : We have two opinions, everyone, which is more correct? Are they combined or not?

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : They are combined, because there is a difference between the type and the genus, the genus is not combined, so we do not combine dates with raisins, nor wheat with barley, but dates are types, yellow and red, some of them are combined with the rest, so the types are combined with each other and the genera are not combined with each other, complete. The author's statement, I think, is the start of today's lesson?

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : ... .

The questioner : ... Consider the weight in the fruit.

The Shaykh : The weight in the fruit?

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : Good, you must bring the, good, now we start the new lesson.

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : Yes, well done, you reminded me, this Shaykh Salman, may Allah reward him with good, brought us something.
