Sayyiduna Miqdam bin Ma’dikarib (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that we participated in a battle during the summer with Sayyiduna Khalid bin Walid (may Allah be pleased with him). Our companions greatly desired to eat meat, so they said: “Do you permit us to slaughter a mare?” He gave them permission and they tied them with ropes. Then I said: “Wait, I will go to Sayyiduna Khalid (may Allah be pleased with him) and ask him.” I asked him, and he said: “We participated in the Battle of Khaybar with the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The people advanced very quickly towards the Jews’ fortresses. The Prophet ordered me to call out to gather the people: ‘As-Salatu Jami’ah’ and to say that only a Muslim will enter Paradise. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: ‘O people! You have shown great haste in advancing towards the Jews’ fortresses. Beware! The wealth of the dhimmis is not lawful for you except with due right, and the meat of domestic donkeys, horses, and mules is forbidden for you, as is every predatory animal with fangs and every bird that hunts with its talons.’”
