عَنِ ابْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ جَارِيَةً لِكَعْبٍ كَانَتْ تَرْعَى غَنَمًا لَهُ بِسَلْعٍ فَعَدَا الذِّئْبُ عَلَى شَاةٍ مِنْ شَاتِهَا فَأَدْرَكَتْهَا الرَّاعِيَةُ فَذَكَّتْهَا بِمَرْوَةٍ فَسَأَلَ كَعْبُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَمَرَهُ بِأَكْلِهَا
The son of Sayyiduna Ka'b bin Malik narrates that the slave-girl of Sayyiduna Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him) was grazing his goats at the foot of Mount Sala', when a wolf attacked one of the goats. However, when the shepherdess found the goat alive, she slaughtered it with a stone. When Sayyiduna Ka'b bin Malik asked the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about this, he (peace and blessings be upon him) permitted eating it.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … If the edge of a stone is sharp and it cuts through the body like a knife, then slaughtering with it is also permissible. In the following hadith, a general principle regarding the instrument of slaughter has been stated.
