حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ ثَوْرِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ الدِّيلِيِّ، عَنِ ابْنٍ لِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سُفْيَانَ الثَّقَفِيِّ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، سُفْيَانَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ، بَعَثَهُ مُصَدِّقًا فَكَانَ يَعُدُّ عَلَى النَّاسِ بِالسَّخْلِ فَقَالُوا أَتَعُدُّ عَلَيْنَا بِالسَّخْلِ وَلاَ تَأْخُذُ مِنْهُ شَيْئًا . فَلَمَّا قَدِمَ عَلَى عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ ذَكَرَ لَهُ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ نَعَمْ تَعُدُّ عَلَيْهِمْ بِالسَّخْلَةِ يَحْمِلُهَا الرَّاعِي وَلاَ تَأْخُذُهَا وَلاَ تَأْخُذُ الأَكُولَةَ وَلاَ الرُّبَّى وَلاَ الْمَاخِضَ وَلاَ فَحْلَ الْغَنَمِ وَتَأْخُذُ الْجَذَعَةَ وَالثَّنِيَّةَ وَذَلِكَ عَدْلٌ بَيْنَ غِذَاءِ الْغَنَمِ وَخِيَارِهِ . قَالَ مَالِكٌ وَالسَّخْلَةُ الصَّغِيرَةُ حِينَ تُنْتَجُ . وَالرُّبَّى الَّتِي قَدْ وَضَعَتْ فَهِيَ تُرَبِّي وَلَدَهَا . وَالْمَاخِضُ هِيَ الْحَامِلُ . وَالأَكُولَةُ هِيَ شَاةُ اللَّحْمِ الَّتِي تُسَمَّنُ لِتُؤْكَلَ . وَقَالَ مَالِكٌ فِي الرَّجُلِ تَكُونُ لَهُ الْغَنَمُ لاَ تَجِبُ فِيهَا الصَّدَقَةُ فَتَوَالَدُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَأْتِيَهَا الْمُصَدِّقُ بِيَوْمٍ وَاحِدٍ فَتَبْلُغُ مَا تَجِبُ فِيهِ الصَّدَقَةُ بِوِلاَدَتِهَا قَالَ مَالِكٌ إِذَا بَلَغَتِ الْغَنَمُ بِأَوْلاَدِهَا مَا تَجِبُ فِيهِ الصَّدَقَةُ فَعَلَيْهِ فِيهَا الصَّدَقَةُ وَذَلِكَ أَنَّ وِلاَدَةَ الْغَنَمِ مِنْهَا وَذَلِكَ مُخَالِفٌ لِمَا أُفِيدَ مِنْهَا بِاشْتِرَاءٍ أَوْ هِبَةٍ أَوْ مِيرَاثٍ وَمِثْلُ ذَلِكَ الْعَرْضُ لاَ يَبْلُغُ ثَمَنُهُ مَا تَجِبُ فِيهِ الصَّدَقَةُ ثُمَّ يَبِيعُهُ صَاحِبُهُ فَيَبْلُغُ بِرِبْحِهِ مَا تَجِبُ فِيهِ الصَّدَقَةُ فَيُصَدِّقُ رِبْحَهُ مَعَ رَأْسِ الْمَالِ وَلَوْ كَانَ رِبْحُهُ فَائِدَةً أَوْ مِيرَاثًا لَمْ تَجِبْ فِيهِ الصَّدَقَةُ حَتَّى يَحُولَ عَلَيْهِ الْحَوْلُ مِنْ يَوْمَ أَفَادَهُ أَوْ وَرِثَهُ . قَالَ مَالِكٌ فَغِذَاءُ الْغَنَمِ مِنْهَا كَمَا رِبْحُ الْمَالِ مِنْهُ غَيْرَ أَنَّ ذَلِكَ يَخْتَلِفُ فِي وَجْهٍ آخَرَ أَنَّهُ إِذَا كَانَ لِلرَّجُلِ مِنَ الذَّهَبِ أَوِ الْوَرِقِ مَا تَجِبُ فِيهِ الزَّكَاةُ ثُمَّ أَفَادَ إِلَيْهِ مَالاً تَرَكَ مَالَهُ الَّذِي أَفَادَ فَلَمْ يُزَكِّهِ مَعَ مَالِهِ الأَوَّلِ حِينَ يُزَكِّيهِ حَتَّى يَحُولَ عَلَى الْفَائِدَةِ الْحَوْلُ مِنْ يَوْمَ أَفَادَهَا وَلَوْ كَانَتْ لِرَجُلٍ غَنَمٌ أَوْ بَقَرٌ أَوْ إِبِلٌ تَجِبُ فِي كُلِّ صِنْفٍ مِنْهَا الصَّدَقَةُ ثُمَّ أَفَادَ إِلَيْهَا بَعِيرًا أَوْ بَقَرَةً أَوْ شَاةً صَدَّقَهَا مَعَ صِنْفِ مَا أَفَادَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ حِينَ يُصَدِّقُهُ إِذَا كَانَ عِنْدَهُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ الصِّنْفِ الَّذِي أَفَادَ نِصَابُ مَاشِيَةٍ . قَالَ مَالِكٌ وَهَذَا أَحْسَنُ مَا سَمِعْتُ فِي ذَلِكَ .


Yahya related to me from Malik from Thawr ibn Zayd ad-Dili from ason of Abdullah ibn Sufyan ath-Thaqafi from his grandfather Sufyan ibnAbdullah that Umar ibn al-Khattab once sent him to collect zakat. Heused to include sakhlas (when assessing zakat), and they said, "Do youinclude sakhlas even though you do not take them (as payment)?" Hereturned to Umar ibn al-Khattab and mentioned that to him and Umarsaid, "Yes, you include a sakhla which the shepherd is carrying, butyou do not take it. Neither do you take an akula, or a rubba, or amakhid, or male sheep and goats in their second and third years, andthis is a just compromise between the young of sheep and goats and thebest of them."Malik said, "A sakhla is a newborn lamb orkid. A rubba is a mother that is looking after her offspring, a makhidis a pregnant ewe or goat, and an akula is a sheep or goat that isbeing fattened for meat."Malik said, about a man who hadsheep and goats on which he did not have to pay any zakat, but whichincreased by birth to a zakatable amount on the day before the zakatcollector came to them, "If the number of sheep and goats along withtheir (newborn) offspring reaches a zakatable amount then the man hasto pay zakat on them. That is because the offspring of the sheep arepart of the flock itself. It is not the same situation as when someone acquires sheep by buying them, or is given them, or inherits them.Rather, it is like when merchandise whose value does not come to azakatable amount is sold, and with the profit that accrues it thencomes to a zakatable amount. The owner must then pay zakat on both hisprofit and his original capital, taken together. If his profit hadbeen a chance acquisition or an inheritance he would not have had topay zakat on it until one year had elapsed over it from the day he hadacquired it or inherited it."Malik said, "The young of sheepand goats are part of the flock, in the same way that profit fromwealth is part of that wealth. There is, however, one difference, inthat when a man has a zakatable amount of gold and silver, and thenacquires an additional amount of wealth, he leaves aside the wealth hehas acquired and does not pay zakat on it when he pays the zakat onhis original wealth but waits until a year has elapsed over what hehas acquired from the day he acquired it. Whereas a man who has azakatable amount of sheep and goats, or cattle, or camels, and thenacquires another camel, cow, sheep or goat, pays zakat on it at thesame time that he pays the zakat on the others of its kind, if healready has a zakatable amount of livestock of that particular kind."Malik said, "This is the best of what I have heard aboutthis.
