Musnad Ahmad 1267 (Book 5, Hadith 673) #34899
Exemption from Zakah on Horses and Slaves

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) exempted his followers from paying zakah on horses and slaves.

It was narrated from 'Ali (رضي الله عنه) that The Messenger of Allah said: "I have exempted you with regard to horses and slaves; no zakah is due on them".
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْد اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَيُّوبَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ ضَمْرَةَ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ، رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ إِنِّي قَدْ عَفَوْتُ لَكُمْ عَنْ الْخَيْلِ وَالرَّقِيقِ وَلَا صَدَقَةَ فِيهِمَا‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the exemption of zakat, which is a form of charity in Islam, for horses and slaves. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said that no zakat should be paid on these two items. This hadith teaches us to be generous with our wealth and to give charity whenever we can, but it also shows us that there are certain exemptions when it comes to giving charity. We should not forget that Allah has given us so much in this world, so we should always strive to give back as much as possible in whatever way we can. It also teaches us the importance of being mindful of our resources and using them wisely.
