Sunan Abi Dawud: Book 9, Hadith 37

Explaining the meaning of Jalab and janab Muhammad bin Ishaq said The meaning of jalab said is that the zakat of animals should be collected at their places (dwellings), and they (animals) should not be pulled to the collector of zakat. The meaning of janab is that the animals are removed at a distance (from the collector). The owners of the animals should do so. The collector of zakat should not stay at a distance from the places of the people who bring their animals to him. The zakat should be collected in its place.

حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبِي يَقُولُ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، فِي قَوْلِهِ ‏
“‏ لاَ جَلَبَ وَلاَ جَنَبَ ‏”‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَنْ تُصَدَّقَ الْمَاشِيَةُ فِي مَوَاضِعِهَا وَلاَ تُجْلَبُ إِلَى الْمُصَدِّقِ وَالْجَنَبُ عَنْ غَيْرِ هَذِهِ الْفَرِيضَةِ أَيْضًا لاَ يُجْنَبُ أَصْحَابُهَا يَقُولُ وَلاَ يَكُونُ الرَّجُلُ بِأَقْصَى مَوَاضِعِ أَصْحَابِ الصَّدَقَةِ فَتُجْنَبُ إِلَيْهِ وَلَكِنْ تُؤْخَذُ فِي مَوْضِعِهِ ‏.‏

Sunan Abi Dawud: Book 9, Hadith 37

 
This hadith is from the Sunan Abi Dawud collection of hadiths. Sunan Abi Dawud constitutes a seminal work within the Kutub al-Sittah (the Six Books), the canonical compendiums of hadith in Sunni Islam. Authored by Abu Dawud Sulayman ibn al-Ash’ath al-Sijistani (817–889 CE), the collection is systematically organized into kitabs (books) that primarily address matters of fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence). Containing precisely 4,800 hadiths, it is critically acclaimed not only for its content but for the compiler’s scholarly annotations, which frequently assess the authenticity (sihha) and reliability of the included isnads (chains of transmission). Its status is thus one of pronounced authority, though it is not exclusively limited to sahih (authentic) grade hadiths.
