Summary of Sunan an-Nasai Hadith 2511

This Hadith from Abu Saeed Al-Khudri names three forms of Sadaqatul Fitr. He says the Messenger of Allah enjoined it as one Sa of barley, one Sa of dates, or one Sa of cottage cheese. The wording is short, but it adds cottage cheese to the food types found in some other reports in this batch. For users searching Zakatul Fitr cottage cheese, one Sa of barley, or Abu Saeed Zakatul Fitr, this narration gives a focused answer. It does not mention wheat, raisins, timing, or all categories of people. So the explanation should stay with the stated foods and the shared measure of one Sa.

What we learn from this hadith

  • The narration names Sadaqatul Fitr as an enjoined act.
  • The measure is one Sa in each listed option.
  • The foods named are barley, dates, and cottage cheese.
  • The report keeps the focus on amount and food type.
