55. The Mudd
The mudd is not simply a double-handful.
A mudd is an actual physical container (like a small bowl or pot, or a large cup), a standardized unit of measurement,
one that was widely in use in the time of the Prophet (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) in the marketplaces and in their
houses.
It is based on a double-handful - don't get confused - but the Companions used to buy and sell using the containers
(the mudd and the saa'), not their own individual double-handfuls, and they used to give their zakaat al-fitr with these
(the saa' and the mudd). The Prophet (sallaaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) used to have Zayd ibn Thaabit measure out mudds and
saa's of food using the standardized mudd and saa'.
So Allaah did not legislate that big-handed people have to give more zakaat al-fitr, and people with small hands give less.
Rather there is a standardized measurement to be used, according to how it has been legislated.
Thus, it is known that it is incorrect to define the mudd referred to in the texts as simply anyone's double-handful, rather the mudd referred to was an actual container,
which our scholars throughout history have busied themselves recording its size, shape, volume, and description.
And Allaah knows best.
