It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to give one sa’ of dates or one sa’ of barley as Sadaqat al-Fitr. And Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) states that the people made one sa’ of dates and barley equal to two mudd (half a sa’) of wheat.
