حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ النُّفَيْلِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ عُقْبَةَ ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ ، عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ، قَالَ : " أَمَرَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِزَكَاةِ الْفِطْرِ أَنْ تُؤَدَّى قَبْلَ خُرُوجِ النَّاسِ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ " ، قَالَ : فَكَانَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ يُؤَدِّيهَا قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ بِالْيَوْمِ وَالْيَوْمَيْنِ .
Ibn Umar said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded us that the end of Ramadan when the fasting is closed sadaqah (alms) should be paid before the people went to prayer. Abdullah bin Umar used to pay it one or two days before.

1610. Commentary:
➊ This charity was instituted by the command of the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam). This indicates its obligatory nature, as the word (fardh) has appeared in other hadiths.
➋ The due right of Sadaqat al-Fitr is that it should be given before going out for the Eid prayer.

Hadith Commentary: Benefits and Issues: It is necessary to give the sadaqat al-fitr before the Eid prayer; if it is given afterwards, it will not be considered sadaqat al-fitr. And the practice of the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) requires that one sa‘ (a specific measure) of sadaqat al-fitr be given from each type (of staple food).
