Jami at-Tirmidhi 675 (Book 7, Hadith 59) #26240
Obligation of Sadaqatul-Fitr

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad made Sadaqatul-Fitr an obligation for all people, which can be paid with either dried dates or barley, and the people equated it to half a Sa of wheat.

Ibn Umar narrated: "The Messenger of Allah made Sadaqatul-Fitr an obligation upon the male and female, the free and the bondsmen, as a Sa of dried dates or a Sa of barley". He said: "So the people equated that to half a Sa of wheat".
