Chapter on zakat of trade goods and its exemption from horses and slaves
Sunan ad-Daraqutni — Hadith 2026/1
قَالَ أُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ : وَثنا سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، مِثْلَهُ.
It is narrated about Sayyiduna Samurah bin Jundub (may Allah be pleased with him): He wrote this: "Beginning in the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. This is from Samurah bin Jundub to his sons. Peace be upon you all. To proceed! The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) instructed us regarding our slaves: those slaves who are used for a man's work, the man does not intend to sell them. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) instructed us: we will not pay zakat on any of them, and he (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) instructed us that for any slave who is prepared for sale, we will pay zakat on him."
