Hadith 1810
اُردوEn
وَعَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ قَالَتْ: كُنْتُ أَلْبَسُ أَوْضَاحًا مِنْ ذَهَبٍ فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَكَنْزٌ هُوَ؟ فَقَالَ: «مَا بلغ أَن يُؤدى زَكَاتُهُ فَزُكِّيَ فَلَيْسَ بِكَنْزٍ» . رَوَاهُ مَالِكٌ وَأَبُو دَاوُد
Umm Salama said she was wearing gold ornaments and asked God’s messenger whether that was a treasure,* to which he replied, “Whatever reaches a quantity on which zakat is payable is not a treasure when the zakat is paid.” Malik and Abu Dawud transmitted it. * The word kanz which means a treasure is used as a technical term for property liable to zakat on which the zakat is not paid.
