Hadith 3966

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو يَعْلَى ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ بْنِ رُفَيْعٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ ، قَالَ : كَانَ أَبُو قَتَادَةَ فِي قَوْمٍ مُحْرِمِينَ ، وَهُوَ حَلالٌ ، فَعَرَضَ لأَصْحَابِهِ حِمَارٌ وَحْشِيٌّ ، فَلَمْ يُؤْذِنُوهُ حَتَّى أَبْصَرَهُ وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ ، فَاخْتَلَسَ مِنْ بَعْضِهِمِ سَوْطًا ، فَحَمَلَ عَلَيْهِ فَصَرَعَهُ ، فَأَتَاهُمْ بِهِ ، فَأَكَلُوا ، وَحَمَلُوا مَعَهُمْ ، فَأَتَوْا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَسَأَلُوهُ ؟ ، فَقَالَ : " هَلْ أَشَارَ إِلَيْهِ إِنْسَانٌ مِنْكُمْ ؟ " ، قَالُوا : لا ، قَالَ : " فَكُلُوهُ " .
Abdullah bin Abu Qatadah narrates that Sayyiduna Abu Qatadah (may Allah be pleased with him) was with a group of people who were in the state of Ihram, while Sayyiduna Abu Qatadah (may Allah be pleased with him) himself was not in Ihram. A wild donkey (zebra) appeared before those people. The companions did not inform Sayyiduna Abu Qatadah (may Allah be pleased with him) about it, until he himself saw it. He was sitting at that time; he took their staff, attacked it, and killed it. He brought it to his companions, and they ate its meat. They also kept some of it with them. When these people presented themselves before the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) and asked him about this matter, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) inquired: "Did any of you (in the state of Ihram) point towards it?" They replied: "No." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Then eat it."
