Chapter on Categories Upon Whom Zakat is Obligatory
وَ رَوَى عَبْدُ اَلرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ اَلْحَجَّاجِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: «لَيْسَ فِي اَلْأَكِيلَةِ وَ لاَ فِي اَلرُّبَّى اَلَّتِي تُرَبَّى اِثْنَتَيْنِ وَ لاَ شَاةِ لَبَنٍ وَ لاَ فَحْلِ اَلْغَنَمِ صَدَقَةٌ».
Abd al-Rahman ibn al-Hajjaj reported from Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام who said: "There is no Zakat on animals kept for personal consumption, on young animals raised for two years, on milking sheep, or on breeding rams."
