Hadith 17283

حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مَسْرُوقٍ ، عَنْ عَبَايَةَ بْنِ رِفَاعَةَ بْنِ رَافِعِ بْنِ خَدِيجٍ ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ رَافِعِ بْنِ خَدِيجٍ ، قَالَ : قُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّا لَاقُو الْعَدُوِّ غَدًا وَلَيْسَ مَعَنَا مُدًى ؟ قَالَ : " مَا أَنْهَرَ الدَّمَ وَذُكِرَ اسْمُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ فَكُلْ ، لَيْسَ السِّنَّ وَالظُّفُرَ ، وَسَأُحَدِّثُكَ : أَمَّا السِّنُّ فَعَظْمٌ ، وَأَمَّا الظُّفُرُ ، فَمُدَى الْحَبَشَةِ " . قَالَ : قَالَ : وَأَصَابَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَهْبًا ، فَنَدَّ مِنْهَا بَعِيرٌ ، فَسَعَوْا لَهُ ، فَلَمْ يَسْتَطِيعُوهُ ، فَرَمَاهُ رَجُلٌ بِسَهْمٍ ، فَحَبَسَهُ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِنَّ لِهَذِهِ الْإِبِلِ أَوْ قَالَ : النَّعَمِ أَوَابِدَ كَأَوَابِدِ الْوَحْشِ ، فَمَا غَلَبَكُمْ فَاصْنَعُوا بِهِ هَكَذَا " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Rafi’ bin Khadij (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I submitted in the presence of the Messenger of Allah, O Messenger of Allah! (peace and blessings be upon him) Tomorrow we will face our enemy (animals), while we do not have any knife? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whatever thing, besides teeth and nails, causes the animal’s blood to flow and Allah’s name is mentioned over it, you may eat it. And let me tell you the reason: teeth are bone and nails are the knives of the Abyssinians. During this time, some camels were received as spoils of war, among which one camel ran away. People tried very hard to control it but could not succeed. Finally, a man aimed and shot an arrow at it and brought it under control. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: These animals also sometimes become wild just as wild animals become furious. When you are overpowered by an animal, do the same with it.
