قال مصنف هذا الكتاب - رحمه الله -: وهذا على الانكار لا على الاخبار، يريد بذلك [أنه] كيف تجب عليه الفطرة ولا تجوز شهادته أي أن شهادته جائزة كما أن الفطرة عليه واجبة.
The compiler of this book (may Allah سبحانه وتعالى have mercy on him) commented: "This statement is meant as a critique, not as information. It questions how Zakat al-Fitr can be obligatory upon him while his testimony is deemed invalid. The intention here is to clarify that his testimony is valid just as Zakat al-Fitr is obligatory upon him."
