Jami at-Tirmidhi 674 (Book 7, Hadith 58) #26239
The Obligation of Paying Sadaqatul-Fitr

SUMMARY: This hadith is about the obligation of paying Sadaqatul-Fitr, which is a charity given at the end of Ramadan, and it must be given by every Muslim regardless of their age, gender or status.

Amr bin Shu'aib narrated from his grandfather that : the Prophet sent a caller in the roads of Makkah proclaiming "Sadaqatul-Fitr is required upon every Muslim, male or female, free or slave, young or old; it is two Mudd of wheat or its equivalent of a Sa of food".
حَدَّثَنَا عُقْبَةُ بْنُ مُكْرَمٍ الْبَصْرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا سَالِمُ بْنُ نُوحٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ بَعَثَ مُنَادِيًا فِي فِجَاجِ مَكَّةَ ‏ "‏ أَلاَ إِنَّ صَدَقَةَ الْفِطْرِ وَاجِبَةٌ عَلَى كُلِّ مُسْلِمٍ ذَكَرٍ أَوْ أُنْثَى حُرٍّ أَوْ عَبْدٍ صَغِيرٍ أَوْ كَبِيرٍ مُدَّانِ مِنْ قَمْحٍ أَوْ سِوَاهُ صَاعٌ مِنْ طَعَامٍ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ ‏.‏ وَرَوَى عُمَرُ بْنُ هَارُونَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ وَقَالَ عَنِ الْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ مِينَاءَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ فَذَكَرَ بَعْضَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ ‏.‏ حدثنا جارود حدثنا عمر بن هارون هذا الحديث

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith explains the obligation for Muslims to pay Sadaqatul-Fitr during the month of Ramadan. It is a charity that must be paid by all Muslims regardless if they are male or female, free or slave and young or old. The amount that needs to be paid can either be two Mudds worth of wheat which equals one Sa’ worth in food items such as dates and rice. This act serves as an act to purify oneself from any wrongdoings during the month and also serves as an act to help those who are less fortunate than us. It teaches us values such as generosity and kindness towards others while also reminding us that we should always strive to do good deeds no matter how small they may seem.
