وَلَمْ يَرَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ ، وَأَنَسٌ بِالذَّبْحِ بَأْسًا وَهُوَ غَيْرُ الصَّيْدِ نَحْوُ الْإِبِلِ ، وَالْغَنَمِ ، وَالْبَقَرِ ، وَالدَّجَاجِ ، وَالْخَيْلِ ، يُقَالُ عَدْلُ ذَلِكَ مِثْلُ ، فَإِذَا كُسِرَتْ عِدْلٌ فَهُوَ زِنَةُ ذَلِكَ قِيَامًا قِوَامًا يَعْدِلُونَ يَجْعَلُونَ عَدْلًا .
And Anas and Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them) did not see any harm in slaughtering animals other than game for a person in the state of Ihram, such as a camel, goat, cow, chicken, or horse. In the Qur'an, the word «غدل» (with the letter ghain having a fathah) is used in the meaning of "like," and «عدل» (when the letter 'ain is read with a kasrah) will be in the meaning of "weight." «قياما» «قواما» (means, «قيم») is in the meaning of making something like «يعدلون».
حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ فَضَالَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ ، عَنْ يَحْيَى ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ ، قَالَ : " انْطَلَقَ أَبِي عَامَ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ ، فَأَحْرَمَ أَصْحَابُهُ وَلَمْ يُحْرِمْ ، وَحُدِّثَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّ عَدُوًّا يَغْزُوهُ ، فَانْطَلَقَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَبَيْنَمَا أَنَا مَعَ أَصْحَابِهِ تَضَحَّكَ بَعْضُهُمْ إِلَى بَعْضٍ ، فَنَظَرْتُ ، فَإِذَا أَنَا بِحِمَارِ وَحْشٍ ، فَحَمَلْتُ عَلَيْهِ ، فَطَعَنْتُهُ ، فَأَثْبَتُّهُ وَاسْتَعَنْتُ بِهِمْ ، فَأَبَوْا أَنْ يُعِينُونِي ، فَأَكَلْنَا مِنْ لَحْمِهِ وَخَشِينَا أَنْ نُقْتَطَعَ ، فَطَلَبْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَرْفَعُ فَرَسِي شَأْوًا وَأَسِيرُ شَأْوًا ، فَلَقِيتُ رَجُلًا مِنْ بَنِي غِفَارٍ فِي جَوْفِ اللَّيْلِ ، قُلْتُ : أَيْنَ تَرَكْتَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ؟ قَالَ : تَرَكْتُهُ بِتَعْهَنَ وَهُوَ قَائِلٌ السُّقْيَا ، فَقُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّ أَهْلَكَ يَقْرَءُونَ عَلَيْكَ السَّلَامَ وَرَحْمَةَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّهُمْ قَدْ خَشُوا أَنْ يُقْتَطَعُوا دُونَكَ فَانْتَظِرْهُمْ ، قُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، " أَصَبْتُ حِمَارَ وَحْشٍ ، وَعِنْدِي مِنْهُ فَاضِلَةٌ ؟ فَقَالَ لِلْقَوْمِ : كُلُوا وَهُمْ مُحْرِمُونَ " .
Narrated `Abdullah bin Abu Qatada: My father set out (for Mecca) in the year of Al-Hudaibiya, and his companions assumed Ihram, but he did not. At that time the Prophet was informed that an enemy wanted to attack him, so the Prophet proceeded onwards. While my father was among his companions, some of them laughed among themselves. (My father said), "I looked up and saw an onager. I attacked, stabbed and caught it. I then sought my companions' help but they refused to help me. (Later) we all ate its meat. We were afraid that we might be left behind (separated) from the Prophet so I went in search of the Prophet and made my horse to run at a galloping speed at times and let it go slow at an ordinary speed at other times till I met a man from the tribe of Bani Ghifar at midnight. I asked him, "Where did you leave the Prophet ?" He replied, "I left him at Ta'hun and he had the intention of having the midday rest at As-Suqya. I followed the trace and joined the Prophet and said, 'O Allah's Apostle! Your people (companions) send you their compliments, and (ask for) Allah's Blessings upon you. They are afraid lest they may be left behind; so please wait for them.' I added, 'O Allah's Apostle! I hunted an onager and some of its meat is with me. The Prophet told the people to eat it though all of them were in the state of Ihram."

Shaykh Abdul Sattar al-Hammad
Hadith Commentary:
(1)
From this hadith, it is understood that a person in the state of ihram (muhrim) may eat the meat of game, provided that he has not participated in any way in the act of hunting, nor has he given any information regarding it, even to the extent that a non-muhrim sees and hunts the animal on his own, without being guided or directed by the muhrim.
Some narrations indicate that the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) was presented with the meat of game, but he refused to eat it.
The explanation for this is that the game was hunted specifically for him.
And Allah knows best.
(2)
The original incident is as follows: Abu Qatadah (radi Allahu anhu) set out from Madinah with the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam).
On the way, the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) received information that there were some enemies in the valley of Ghaiqah who intended to attack the Muslims.
He ordered Abu Qatadah (radi Allahu anhu) along with several others to take the coastal route so that the enemy could not take advantage of the Muslims’ unawareness.
When the danger had passed, the rest of the companions donned ihram, but Abu Qatadah (radi Allahu anhu) did not, and since he had not donned ihram, hunting was permissible for him.
(Fath al-Bari: 4/31)
(3)
Ta‘hun is the name of a spring located three miles from the settlement of Suqya.
And Suqya is the name of a large settlement between Makkah and Madinah.
