Sunan Abi Dawud 1607 (Book 9, Hadith 52) #21899
Prohibiting Certain Dates as Zakat

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) prohibited the acceptance of two kinds of dates from Medina as zakat.

Abu Umamah bin Sahl reported on the authority of his father: The Messenger of Allah prohibited to accept ja'rur and habiq dates as zakat. Az-Zuhri said: These are two kinds of the dates of Medina. Abu Dawud said: This has also been transmitted by Abu al-Walid from Sulaiman bin Kathir from Az-Zuhri.
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ فَارِسٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبَّادٌ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ بْنِ حُسَيْنٍ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ بْنِ سَهْلٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ عَنِ الْجُعْرُورِ وَلَوْنِ الْحُبَيْقِ أَنْ يُؤْخَذَا فِي الصَّدَقَةِ ‏.‏ قَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ لَوْنَيْنِ مِنْ تَمْرِ الْمَدِينَةِ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَأَسْنَدَهُ أَيْضًا أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ كَثِيرٍ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ
