وحَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ صَالِحِ بْنِ كَيْسَانَ . ح وحَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ وَاللَّفْظُ لَهُ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا صَالِحُ بْنُ كَيْسَانَ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَبَا مُحَمَّدٍ مَوْلَى أَبِي قَتَادَةَ ، يَقُولُ : سَمِعْتُ أَبَا قَتَادَةَ ، يَقُولُ : خَرَجْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، حَتَّى إِذَا كُنَّا بِالْقَاحَةِ فَمِنَّا الْمُحْرِمُ وَمِنَّا غَيْرُ الْمُحْرِمِ ، إِذْ بَصُرْتُ بِأَصْحَابِي يَتَرَاءَوْنَ شَيْئًا ، فَنَظَرْتُ فَإِذَا حِمَارُ وَحْشٍ ، فَأَسْرَجْتُ فَرَسِي وَأَخَذْتُ رُمْحِي ، ثُمَّ رَكِبْتُ فَسَقَطَ مِنِّي سَوْطِي ، فَقُلْتُ لِأَصْحَابِي وَكَانُوا مُحْرِمِينَ : نَاوِلُونِي السَّوْطَ ، فَقَالُوا : وَاللَّهِ لَا نُعِينُكَ عَلَيْهِ بِشَيْءٍ ، فَنَزَلْتُ فَتَنَاوَلْتُهُ ، ثُمَّ رَكِبْتُ فَأَدْرَكْتُ الْحِمَارَ مِنْ خَلْفِهِ ، وَهُوَ وَرَاءَ أَكَمَةٍ ، فَطَعَنْتُهُ بِرُمْحِي فَعَقَرْتُهُ ، فَأَتَيْتُ بِهِ أَصْحَابِي ، فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ : كُلُوهُ ، وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ : لَا تَأْكُلُوهُ ، وَكَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَمَامَنَا ، فَحَرَّكْتُ فَرَسِي فَأَدْرَكْتُهُ ، فَقَالَ : " هُوَ حَلَالٌ فَكُلُوهُ " .
Abu Qatadah (RA) reported: We went with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) till we reached al-Qaha (a place three stages away from Madinah). Some of us were in the state of Ihram and some of us were not. I saw my companions looking towards something, and as I saw I found it to be a wild ass. I saddled my horse and took up my spear and then mounted upon (the horse) and my whip fell down. I said to my companions as they were in the state of Ihram to pick up the whip for me but they said: By Allah, we cannot help you in any (such) thing (i. e. hunting). So i dismounted (the horse) and picked it (whip) up and mounted again and caught the wild ass after chasing it. It was behind a hillock and I attacked it with my spear and killed it. Then I brought it to my companions. Some of them said: Eat it, while others said: Do not eat it. The Apostle of Allah (ﷺ) was in front of us. I moved my horse and came to him (and asked him), whereupon he said: It is permissible, so eat it.
