Summary
A saying of Malik: the Sunna among us regarding grains that people store and eat is that a tenth is taken from what the sky waters, springs and rain-fed land irrigate of such grain, and half a tenth from what is watered by hand-carried water, when it reaches five wasqs by the first sa', the Prophet ﷺ's sa'; what exceeds five wasqs owes zakat in proportion. 1
