Narrated Abyad ibn Hammal: Abyad spoke to the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم about sadaqah when he came along with a deputation to him. He replied: O brother of Saba', sadaqah is unavoidable. He said: We cultivated cotton, Messenger of Allah. The people of Saba' scattered, and there remained only a few at Ma'arib. He therefore concluded a treaty of peace with the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم to give seventy suits of cloth, equivalent to the price of the Yemeni garments known as al-mu'afir, to be paid every year on behalf of those people of Saba' who remained at Ma'arib. They continued to pay them till the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم died. The governors after the death of the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم broke the treaty concluded by Abyad by Hammal with the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم to give seventy suits of garments. Abu Bakr then revived it as the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم had done till Abu Bakr died. When Abu Bakr died, it was discontinued and the sadaqah was levied.
