Muwatta Malik #633
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 جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ، ذَكَرَ الْمَجُوسَ فَقَالَ مَا أَدْرِي كَيْفَ أَصْنَعُ فِي أَمْرِهِمْ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَوْفٍ أَشْهَدُ لَسَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ
" سُنُّوا بِهِمْ سُنَّةَ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ " .
Yahya related to me from Malik from Jafar ibn Muhammad ibn Ali
from his father that Umar ibn al-Khattab mentioned the magians and
said, "I do not know what to do about them." Abd ar-Rahman ibn Awf
said, "I bear witness that I heard the Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, say, 'Follow the same sunna with them
that you follow with the people of the Book . ' "
