Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 1602 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ visited a household
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ ، قَالَ : نَا بِشْرٌ قَالَ : نَا أَبُو يُوسُفَ عَنْ أَبِي حَنِيفَةَ عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ كُلَيْبٍ عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ . عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ -صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ- زَارَ قَوْمًا مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ فِي دَارِهِمْ ، فَذَبَحُوا لَهُ شَاةً ، وَصَنَعُوا لَهُ مِنْهَا طَعَامًا ، فَأَخَذَ مِنَ اللَّحْمِ شَيْئًا لِيَأْكُلَهُ ، فَمَضَغَهُ سَاعَةً لَا يُسِيغُهُ ، فَقَالَ : I " مَا شَأْنُ هَذَا اللَّحْمِ ؟ I " فَقَالُوا : شَاةٌ لِفُلَانٍ ، ذَبَحْنَاهَا حَتَّى يَجِيءَ صَاحِبُهَا ، فَنُرْضِيهِ مِنْ لَحْمِهَا ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ -صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ- : أَطْعِمُوهَا الْأُسَارَى .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) visited a household of the Ansar in their home, and they slaughtered a goat for him (peace and blessings be upon him) and prepared food from it (for him).
He (peace and blessings be upon him) took a piece of the meat to eat it and kept chewing it for a long while, but could not swallow it.
He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "What is the matter with this meat?"
They said: (This) was the goat of so-and-so; we slaughtered it (intending) that when its owner comes, we will satisfy him by giving him meat (in exchange for it).
The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Feed it to the captives."
