Wa Alaikum Salam Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh,

Saa being an old unit of measurement hence there could be some differnece of opinion regarding its equivalent in grams. I took it as 3Kgs from "The Book of Zakah" By Shaikh Abdul Azeez Ibn Baaz. This book is published in english translation by Islam House. Please refer to page 10 of this book. In this book it is also mentioned that the Saa used at the time of Prophet SAWS is equivalent to 4 handfuls of average size man.
