Hadith 1938
حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ عَدِيٍّ وَهُوَ ابْنُ ثَابِتٍ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ الْبَرَاءَ ، وَعَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ أَبِي أَوْفَى ، يقولان : " أَصَبْنَا حُمُرًا فَطَبَخْنَاهَا ، فَنَادَى مُنَادِي رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ اكْفَئُوا الْقُدُورَ " .
'Adi (he was the son of Thabit) said: I heard al-Bara' and 'Abdullah bin Abu Aufa say: We found domestic asses and we cooked them. Then the announcer of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) made an announcement that the earthen pots should be turned over.

Al-Bara' said: We found on the Day of Khaibar domestic asses, and the announcer of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) made an announcement that the earthen pots should be turned over.

وحَدَّثَنَا وحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ ، وَإِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، قَالَ أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ : حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ بِشْرٍ ، عَنْ مِسْعَرٍ ، عَنْ ثَابِتِ بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ الْبَرَاءَ ، يَقُولُ : " نُهِينَا عَنْ لُحُومِ الْحُمُرِ الْأَهْلِيَّة " .
Bara was heard saying: We were forbidden (to eat) the flesh of the domestic asses.

وحَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ ، عَنْ عَاصِمٍ ، عَنْ الشَّعْبِيِّ ، عَنْ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ ، قَالَ : " أَمَرَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ نُلْقِيَ لُحُومَ الْحُمُرِ الْأَهْلِيَّةِ نِيئَةً وَنَضِيجَةً ثُمَّ لَمْ يَأْمُرْنَا بِأَكْلِهِ " .
Bara' bin 'Azib (RA) reported: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) commanded us to throw away the flesh of domestic asses whether uncooked or cooked; he then never commanded us to eat that.
