question #1 Sahih Muslim 984c, Book 12, Hadith 18 : What is the significance of Sadaqat-al-Fitr in the month of Ramadan?

Ibn ‘Umar said that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) prescribed the Sadaqa of Ramadan (Sadaqat-al-Fitr) one sa’ of dates or one sa’ of barley for every free man or a slave, male or female, and then the people equalised (one sa’ of dates or barley) with half a sa’ of wheat.
