Musnad Ahmad 1233 (Book 5, Hadith 641) #34867
Paying Zakat on Silver

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) instructed that zakat should be paid on silver, with one dirham due for every forty dirhams.

It was narrated that 'Ali (رضي الله عنه) said: The Messenger of Allah said: 'I have relieved you of zakah on horses and slaves, so pay zakah on silver, for every forty Dirhams one dirham. There is nothing due on one hundred and ninety, but if it reaches two hundred, then five Dirhams are due'.
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْد اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنِي الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ النَّرْسِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ ضَمْرَةَ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ عَفَوْتُ لَكُمْ عَنْ الْخَيْلِ وَالرَّقِيقِ فَأَدُّوا صَدَقَةَ الرِّقَةِ مِنْ كُلِّ أَرْبَعِينَ دِرْهَمًا دِرْهَمًا وَلَيْسَ فِي تِسْعِينَ وَمِائَةٍ شَيْءٌ فَإِذَا بَلَغَتْ مِائَتَيْنِ فَفِيهَا خَمْسَةُ دَرَاهِمَ‏.‏
