question #3 Sahih al-Bukhari 863, Book 10, Hadith 254 : What role did Bilal play in the collection of alms during the Prophet’s time?

A person asked Ibn `Abbas, “Have you ever presented yourself at the (`Id) prayer with Allah’s
Apostle?” He replied, “Yes.” And had it not been for my kinship (position) with the Prophet (ﷺ) it would
not have been possible for me to do so (for he was too young). The Prophet (ﷺ) went to the mark near the
house of Kathir bin As-Salt and delivered a sermon. He then went towards the women. He advised
and reminded them and asked them to give alms. So the woman would bring her hand near her neck
and take off her necklace and put it in the garment of Bilal. Then the Prophet (ﷺ) and Bilal came to the
house.”
