Hazrat Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrated that I do not know whether the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade eating the meat of donkeys because they are used for carrying loads, and he did not like that the animals used for carrying loads should become extinct, or whether he forbade only the meat of domesticated donkeys on the occasion of the Battle of Khaybar.
