حَدِيثُ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ السُّوَائِيِّ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ
Hadith of Jabir bin Samurah al-Suwa'i, from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)
Musnad Abi Ya'la 7445 — a man's mule died, so he came to the Messenger
وَبِإِسْنَادِهِ ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ قَالَ : مَاتَ بَغْلٌ عِنْدَ رَجُلٍ ، فَأَتَى رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يَسْتَفْتِيهِ قَالَ : فَزَعَمَ جَابِرٌ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ لِصَاحِبِهَا : مَا لَكَ مَا يُغْنِيكَ عَنْهَا ؟ قَالَ : لَا . قَالَ : اذْهَبْ فَكُلْهَا .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Samurah (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man's mule died, so he came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) to ask for the Islamic ruling on it. Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) asked its owner: "Do you not have anything that would make you independent of it (the carrion)?" He said: No. So he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Then go and eat it."
