1ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ حَرِيزٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُهُ (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) عَنِ الْحُبُوبِ مَا يُزَكَّى مِنْهَا قَالَ الْبُرُّ وَالشَّعِيرُ وَالذُّرَةُ وَالدُّخْنُ وَالأرُزُّ وَالسُّلْتُ وَالْعَدَسُ وَالسِّمْسِمُ كُلُّ هَذَا يُزَكَّى وَأَشْبَاهُهُ.

1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Hammad ibn ‘Isa from Hariz from Muhammad ibn Muslim who has said the following: “I once asked him (the Imam) (a.s.), about grains which are subject to Zakat. He (the Imam) said, ‘Zakat is due on wheat, barley, corn, millet, rice, suit (something similar to wheat and barley), lentil and sesame all are subject to Zakat as well as the like.’”

2ـ حَرِيزٌ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) مِثْلَهُ وَقَالَ كُلُّ مَا كِيلَ بِالصَّاعِ فَبَلَغَ الأوْسَاقَ فَعَلَيْهِ الزَّكَاةُ وَقَالَ جَعَلَ رَسُولُ الله (صلّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) الصَّدَقَةَ فِي كُلِّ شَيْ‏ءٍ أَنْبَتَتِ الأرْضُ إِلاَّ مَا كَانَ فِي الْخُضَرِ وَالْبُقُولِ وَكُلَّ شَيْ‏ءٍ يَفْسُدُ مِنْ يَوْمِهِ.

2. Hariz has narrated from Zurarah who has narrated a similar Hadith from abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.) who has said that whatever is measured with al-Sa‘ and it amounts to al-Awsaq (a certain unit of measurement) then it becomes subject to Zakat.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘The Messenger of Allah made charity (Zakat) obligatory on everything that earth grows except vegetable, legumes and things that perish on the same day.’” H 5738, Ch. 5, h 3

3ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنِ الْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ مَعْرُوفٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مَهْزِيَارَ قَالَ قَرَأْتُ فِي كِتَابِ عَبْدِ الله بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ إِلَى أَبِي الْحَسَنِ (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ رُوِيَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) أَنَّهُ قَالَ وَضَعَ رَسُولُ الله (صلّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) الزَّكَاةَ عَلَى تِسْعَةِ أَشْيَاءَ الْحِنْطَةِ وَالشَّعِيرِ وَالتَّمْرِ وَالزَّبِيبِ وَالذَّهَبِ وَالْفِضَّةِ وَالْغَنَمِ وَالْبَقَرِ وَالإِبِلِ وَعَفَا رَسُولُ الله (صلّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) عَمَّا سِوَى ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ لَهُ الْقَائِلُ عِنْدَنَا شَيْ‏ءٌ كَثِيرٌ يَكُونُ أَضْعَافَ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ وَمَا هُوَ فَقَالَ لَهُ الأرُزُّ فَقَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) أَقُولُ لَكَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ الله (صلّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) وَضَعَ الزَّكَاةَ عَلَى تِسْعَةِ أَشْيَاءَ وَعَفَا عَمَّا سِوَى ذَلِكَ وَتَقُولُ عِنْدَنَا أَرُزٌّ وَعِنْدَنَا ذُرَةٌ وَقَدْ كَانَتِ الذُّرَةُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ الله (صلّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) فَوَقَّعَ (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) كَذَلِكَ هُوَ وَالزَّكَاةُ عَلَى كُلِّ مَا كِيلَ بِالصَّاعِ وَكَتَبَ عَبْدُ الله وَرَوَى غَيْرُ هَذَا الرَّجُلِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) أَنَّهُ سَأَلَهُ عَنِ الْحُبُوبِ فَقَالَ وَمَا هِيَ فَقَالَ السِّمْسِمُ وَالأرُزُّ وَالدُّخْنُ وَكُلُّ هَذَا غَلَّةٌ كَالْحِنْطَةِ وَالشَّعِيرِ فَقَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) فِي الْحُبُوبِ كُلِّهَا زَكَاةٌ.

3. It is also narrated that abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘Everything that is measured by al- Qafiz are dealt with like wheat, barley, dates and raisins. He then asked saying, ‘I pray to Allah to keep my soul in service for your cause, is there Zakat on rice and similar things like beans and lintel?’ He (the Imam) ‘Alayhi al-Salam, signed, ‘Pay charity from everything that is measured.’”

4ـ وَرَوَى أَيْضاً عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) أَنَّهُ قَالَ كُلُّ مَا دَخَلَ الْقَفِيزَ فَهُوَ يَجْرِي مَجْرَى الْحِنْطَةِ وَالشَّعِيرِ وَالتَّمْرِ وَالزَّبِيبِ قَالَ فَأَخْبِرْنِي جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ هَلْ عَلَى هَذَا الأرُزِّ وَمَا أَشْبَهَهُ مِنَ الْحُبُوبِ الْحِمِّصِ وَالْعَدَسِ زَكَاةٌ فَوَقَّعَ (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) صَدَقُوا الزَّكَاةُ فِي كُلِّ شَيْ‏ءٍ كِيلَ.

4. It is narrated from him (narrator of previous Hadith) Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Muhammad ibn ’Isma‘il who has said the following: “I once asked abu al-Hassan (a.s.), ‘We have fresh dates and rice. So what we owe for it?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘You do not owe anything because of fresh dates. If rice is watered by rains from the sky one out of ten is Zakat but if it is watered with buckets then one out of twenty is Zakat on whatever you measure by al-Sa‘ or that he (the Imam) said, ‘Whatever is measured by measuring devices.’”

5ـ وَعَنْهُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ قَالَ قُلْتُ لأَبِي الْحَسَنِ (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) إِنَّ لَنَا رَطْبَةً وَأَرُزّاً فَمَا الَّذِي عَلَيْنَا فِيهَا فَقَالَ (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) أَمَّا الرَّطْبَةُ فَلَيْسَ عَلَيْكَ فِيهَا شَيْ‏ءٌ وَأَمَّا الأرُزُّ فَمَا سَقَتِ السَّمَاءُ بِالْعُشْرِ وَمَا سُقِيَ بِالدَّلْوِ فَنِصْفُ الْعُشْرِ مِنْ كُلِّ مَا كِلْتَ بِالصَّاعِ أَوْ قَالَ وَكِيلَ بِالْمِكْيَالِ.

5. Humayd ibn Ziyad has narrated from Ahmad ibn Sama‘ah from those whom he has mentioned from Aban from abu Maryam who has said the foilowing: “I once asked abu ’Abd Allah (a.s.), about plantation and what is subject to Zakat from it. He (the Imam) said, ‘There is Zakat on wheat, barley, corn, rice, al-sult, and lintels and all of these are subject to Zakat.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘Everything that is measured by al-Sa‘ and amounts to al- Awsaq are subject to Zakat.’”

1ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ سَمَاعَةَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) قَالَ لَيْسَ عَلَى الْبُقُولِ وَلاَ عَلَى الْبِطِّيخِ وَأَشْبَاهِهِ زَكَاةٌ إِلاَّ مَا اجْتَمَعَ عِنْدَكَ مِنْ غَلَّتِهِ فَبَقِيَ عِنْدَكَ سَنَةً.

1. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ‘Uthman ibn ‘Isa from Sama‘ah who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘Zakat is not due on legumes, melons and similar things except that if anything of grain accumulated with you remains for one year.”’

2ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنِ الْعَلاَءِ بْنِ رَزِينٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) أَنَّهُ سُئِلَ عَنِ الْخُضَرِ فِيهَا زَكَاةٌ وَإِنْ بِيعَتْ بِالْمَالِ الْعَظِيمِ فَقَالَ لاَ حَتَّى يَحُولَ عَلَيْهِ الْحَوْلُ.

2. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Muhammad ibn al-Husayn, from Safwan ibn Yahya from al-‘Ala’ ibn Razin from Muhammad ibn Muslim who has said the following: “Abu Ja’far (a.s.), was once asked about vegetables if there is Zakat on it, if sold in exchange for a great wealth. He (the Imam) said, ‘No, Zakat is not due on it (such wealth) unless it remains with one for one year (in store).”’

3ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ حَمَّادٍ عَنِ الْحَلَبِيِّ قَالَ قُلْتُ لأَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) مَا فِي الْخُضَرِ قَالَ وَمَا هِيَ قُلْتُ الْقَضْبُ وَالْبِطِّيخُ وَمِثْلُهُ مِنَ الْخُضَرِ قَالَ لَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ شَيْ‏ءٌ إِلاَّ أَنْ يُبَاعَ مِثْلُهُ بِمَالٍ وَيَحُولَ عَلَيْهِ الْحَوْلُ فَفِيهِ الصَّدَقَةُ وَعَنِ الْغَضَاةِ مِنَ الْفِرْسِكِ وَأَشْبَاهِهِ فِيهِ زَكَاةٌ قَالَ لاَ قُلْتُ فَثَمَنُهُ قَالَ مَا حَالَ عَلَيْهِ الْحَوْلُ مِنْ ثَمَنِهِ فَزَكِّهِ.

3. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from ibn abu ‘ Umayr from Hammad from al-Halabiy who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), ‘How much Zakat is on vegetables. He (the Imam) asked, ‘What is it?’ I replied, ‘Edible herbs, melons and similar things of legumes.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘Zakat is not due on it unless it is sold in exchange for another kind of wealth and it remains with him for one year; then there is charity on it.’ I then asked if there is Zakat on fresh plum and similar things. He (the Imam) said, ‘No, Zakat is not due on it.’ I then asked if there is Zakat on what is received from the sale of such items. He (the Imam) said, ‘If it remains with one for one year, then there is Zakat on it.’”

4ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ مَرَّارٍ وَغَيْرِهِ عَنْ يُونُسَ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا الْحَسَنِ (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) عَنِ الأشْنَانِ فِيهِ زَكَاةٌ فَقَالَ لاَ.
