Muwatta Malik #592
Zakat
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ حُسَيْنٍ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ بِنْتِ قُدَامَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهَا، أَنَّهُ قَالَ : كُنْتُ إِذَا جِئْتُ عُثْمَانَ بْنَ عَفَّانَ أَقْبِضُ عَطَائِي سَأَلَنِي : هَلْ عِنْدَكَ مِنْ مَالٍ وَجَبَتْ عَلَيْكَ فِيهِ الزَّكَاةُ قَالَ فَإِنْ قُلْتُ : نَعَمْ أَخَذَ مِنْ عَطَائِي زَكَاةَ ذَلِكَ الْمَالِ، وَإِنْ قُلْتُ : لاَ، دَفَعَ إِلَىَّ عَطَائِي .
Yahya related to me from Malik from Urwa ibn Husayn from A'isha
bint Qudama that her father said, "When I used to come to Uthman ibn
Affan to collect my allowance he would ask me, 'Do you have any
property on which zakat is due? 'If I said, 'Yes,' he would deduct
the zakat on that property from my allowance, and if I said, 'No,' he
would pay me my allowance (in full)."
