A few authentic hadiths regarding the amount of Fitrana are as follows:
1. Narration of Abdullah bin Umar:
Abdullah bin Umar narrates:
"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ made Sadaqat al-Fitr obligatory, one Sa' of dates or one Sa' of barley, on every slave, free man, male, female, young and old Muslim. And he ﷺ instructed that it (Sadaqat) should be paid before the Eid prayer." (Bukhari: 1503, Muslim: 984)
2. Narration of Abu Sa'id Khudri:
Abu Sa'id Khudri states:
"During the time of the Noble Prophet ﷺ, we used to give Sadaqat al-Fitr on Eid al-Fitr day as one Sa' of food items (grains), which included dates, barley, raisins, and cheese (dried food made from milk)." (Bukhari: 1510, Muslim: 985)
3. Narration of Ibn Abbas:
Ibn Abbas states:
"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ declared Sadaqat al-Fitr as a means of purification for the fasting person and a provision for the needy. Whoever pays it before the Eid prayer, it is an accepted charity, and whoever gives it after the prayer, it will be considered a regular charity." (Abu Dawood: 1609, Ibn Majah: 1827)
Summary:
These hadiths clarify that:
The amount of Fitrana is 1 Sa', which can be given in dates, barley, raisins, cheese, or any other staple food.
If wheat is given, some narrations mention ½ Sa' (approximately 1.633 kilograms), as wheat is more filling compared to other grains.
The best time to pay Zakat al-Fitr (Fitrana) is before the Eid al-Fitr prayer. However, the different times for its payment are as follows:
Best time: Before the Eid al-Fitr prayer.
Permissible time: It can be paid at any time during Ramadan, but it is preferable to give it in the last days of Ramadan so that the deserving can prepare for Eid.
Disliked but permissible: If someone pays Fitrana after the Eid prayer, it will be counted as regular charity, but it will still be fulfilled.
Forbidden time: If someone delays it to the extent that the day of Eid passes and pays afterwards, it is obligatory for them to pay it as soon as possible, as it is a duty and delaying without a valid excuse is not correct.
Therefore, paying Fitrana on time is more beneficial so that those in need can take advantage of it during Eid. #eid $
