كتاب الزكاةBook: On the Explanation of Zakat
بَابُ زَكَاةِ مَا يُخْرَصُ مِنْ ثِمَارِ النَّخِيلِ وَالْأَعْنَابِChapter on Zakat on Estimated Produce of Date Palms and Grapes
Hadith 682B2
قَالَ مَالِك : الْأَمْرُ الْمُجْتَمَعُ عَلَيْهِ عِنْدَنَا أَنَّهُ لَا يُخْرَصُ مِنَ الثِّمَارِ إِلَّا النَّخِيلُ وَالْأَعْنَابُ ، فَإِنَّ ذَلِكَ يُخْرَصُ حِينَ يَبْدُو صَلَاحُهُ وَيَحِلُّ بَيْعُهُ ، وَذَلِكَ أَنَّ ثَمَرَ النَّخِيلِ وَالْأَعْنَابِ يُؤْكَلُ رُطَبًا وَعِنَبًا ، فَيُخْرَصُ عَلَى أَهْلِهِ لِلتَّوْسِعَةِ عَلَى النَّاسِ ، وَلِئَلَّا يَكُونَ عَلَى أَحَدٍ فِي ذَلِكَ ضِيقٌ ، فَيُخْرَصُ ذَلِكَ عَلَيْهِمْ ثُمَّ يُخَلَّى بَيْنَهُمْ وَبَيْنَهُ يَأْكُلُونَهُ كَيْفَ شَاءُوا ، ثُمَّ يُؤَدُّونَ مِنْهُ الزَّكَاةَ عَلَى مَا خُرِصَ عَلَيْهِمْ
Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said: In our view, it is agreed upon that the estimation of any fruit will not be done except for dates and grapes; their estimation will be done when they appear, and when their growth is known to be in good condition, and their sale becomes valid. The reason for this is that dates and grapes are eaten after they ripen, so their estimation will be made so that people do not face difficulty, and they will be handed over to their owner so that he may eat them or sell them. Then zakat will be paid accordingly.
