(538) Chapter: How Much Sadaqah Should Be Given At The End Of Ramadan
62
حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، لَيْسَ فِيهِ ذِكْرُ الْحِنْطَةِ . قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَقَدْ ذَكَرَ مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ فِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ عَنِ الثَّوْرِيِّ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، عَنْ عِيَاضٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ، " نِصْفَ صَاعٍ مِنْ بُرٍّ " . وَهُوَ وَهَمٌ مِنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ هِشَامٍ أَوْ مِمَّنْ رَوَاهُ عَنْهُ .

The aforesaid tradition has also been transmitted by Abu Sa'id through a different chain of narrators.This version adds :
"Half a sa' of wheat ". But this is a misunderstanding on the part of muawayah b. Hisham and of those who narrated from him.
