Musnad Abi Ya'la 7100 — the Prophet ﷺ passed by a sheep that belonged
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ سُفْيَانَ بِمِنًى يَقُولُ: حَفِظْتُهُ مِنْ فِي الزُّهْرِيِّ يُحَدِّثُ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، عَنْ مَيْمُونَةَ: أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم مَرَّ بِشَاةٍ لِمَوْلَاةٍ لَهَا أُعْطِيَتْهَا مِنَ الصَّدَقَةِ، فَقَالَ: «أَلَا أَخَذُوا إِهَابَهَا فَدَبَغُوهُ وَانْتَفَعُوا بِهِ»، قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّمَا هِيَ مَيْتَةٌ، قَالَ: «إِنَّمَا حَرُمَ أَكْلُهَا»، قَالَ أَبُو يَعْقُوبَ: وَبَرَعَ سُفْيَانُ بِهَذِهِ الْآيَةِ: {قُلْ لَا أَجِدُ فِي مَا أُوحِيَ إِلَيَّ مُحَرَّمًا عَلَى طَاعِمٍ يَطْعَمُهُ} [الأنعام: 145]، قَالَ سُفْيَانُ: فَلَوْ لَمْ يَكُنْ إِلَّا هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ اسْتَدْلَلْتُ بِهَا عَلَى فَاسِدِ الْأَكْلِ
It is narrated from Sayyidah Maymunah (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) passed by a sheep that belonged to a freed slave-woman of Sayyidah Maymunah (may Allah be pleased with her), which had been given to her as charity. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said (on seeing it dead): "Why did they not take its skin, tan it and benefit from it?" The Companions said: O Messenger of Allah, it is carrion. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "In fact, only eating it has been made unlawful." Abu Ya'qub (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Sufyan (may Allah have mercy on him) drew a most insightful argument on this issue from the blessed verse: "Say: I do not find, in what has been revealed to me, anything forbidden to one who would eat it" [al-An'am: 145]. Sufyan (may Allah have mercy on him) said: If there were nothing (on this subject) but this one verse, I would have used it alone as proof that eating carrion is corrupt and unlawful.
