Hadith 2356

Imam Abu Bakr, may Allah have mercy on him, states that in the hadith of Hazrat Abdul Muttalib bin Rabee’ah, there is evidence that zakat is forbidden for the family of Abdul Muttalib just as it is forbidden for the descendants of Hashim other than them. As Sayyiduna Zaid bin Arqam, may Allah be pleased with him, narrates that those members of the Prophet’s family upon whom zakat is forbidden are the family of Ali, the family of Aqeel, the family of Abbas, and the family of Muttalib. And Janab al-Muttalibi used to say: Indeed, by the family of the Prophet (peace be upon him) is meant Banu Hashim and Banu Muttalib, whom Allah Almighty has granted a share from the spoils of war in place of zakat. Then the Noble Prophet (peace be upon him) clarified by distributing the share of the close relatives (Dhu al-Qurba) between Banu Hashim and Banu Muttalib, making it clear that by Allah Almighty’s statement « ذَوِي الْقُرْبَىٰ » “Give to the near relatives,” is meant Banu Hashim and Banu Muttalib, and the other relatives of the Noble Prophet (peace be upon him) are not included in this.
