Sahih MuslimHadith Number 979h

وَحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا الثَّوْرِيُّ، وَمَعْمَرٌ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ ‏.‏ مِثْلَ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ مَهْدِيٍّ وَيَحْيَى بْنِ آدَمَ غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ - بَدَلَ التَّمْرِ - ثَمَرٍ ‏.‏

A hadith like this has been narrated by Isma'il b. Umayya with the same chain of transmitters, but instead of the word dates, fruit has been used.

Summary of Sahih Muslim Hadith 979h

This narration records a hadith like the earlier report through the same chain of transmitters, but it notes one wording difference. Instead of the word dates, the word fruit is used. The core topic remains zakat nisab and the Sadaqa threshold, but this specific text is mainly about the wording variation. It does not give a separate new rule by itself in the translation provided. A careful reader should notice that the narration is linked to the hadith of Ibn Mahdi and Yahya b. Adam, with a change in one word. This is useful for people searching for hadith wording differences, zakat on fruit hadith, and Sahih Muslim 979h. The explanation should stay close to the text and avoid adding outside details.

What we learn from this hadith

  • The narration reports a similar Hadith through the same chain.
  • It records a wording difference: fruit is used instead of dates.
  • The core topic remains connected to Sadaqa and zakat thresholds.
  • Small wording differences should be noted carefully.
