HADITH OF THE DAY
FASTING, SADAQA AND NUSUK
Narrated byKab bin Ujra
I came to the Prophet (Peace & Blessings of Allah upon Him) and he said to me, "Come near." So I went near to him and he said, "Are your lice troubling you?" I replied, "Yes." He said, "(Shave your head and) make expiation in the form of Fasting, Sadaqa (giving in charity), or Offering a Sacrifice." (The sub-narrator) Aiyub said,
- Fasting should be for 3 days
- Sadaqa is to be given to 6 poor persons
- Nusuk (Sacrifice) is to be a sheep
