Bakr wrote to me about the Zakat which Allâh had ordered His Messenger (ﷺ) to observe: Whoever had to pay Jadh'a (Jadh'a means a four year old she-camel) as Zakat from his herd of camels and he had not got one, and he had Ḥiqqa (three year old she camel), that Ḥiqqa should be accepted from him along with two sheep if they were available or twenty dirhams and whoever had to pay Ḥiqqa as Zakât and he had no Hiqqa but had a Jadh'a, the Jadh'a should be accepted from him, and the Zakât collector should pay back or return to him twenty dirhams or two sheep; and whoever had to pay Ḥiqqa as Zakât and he had not got one, but had a Bint Labûn (two year old she-camel), it should be accepted from him along with two sheep or twenty dirhams; and whoever had to pay Bint Labûn and had a Higga, that Ḥiqqa should be accepted from him and the Zakât collector should pay back or return him twenty dirhams or two sheep; and whoever had to pay Bint Labûn and he had not got one but had a Bint Makhâd (one year old she camel), that Bint should be accepted from him along with twenty dirhams or two sheep.
