اُردوEn
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، قَالَ: هِشَامُ بْنُ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ أَخْبَرَنِي، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ، يَقُولُ: أَنْفَجْنَا أَرْنَبًا وَنَحْنُ بِمَرِّ الظَّهْرَانِ، فَسَعَى الْقَوْمُ فَلَغِبُوا، فَأَخَذْتُهَا وَجِئْتُ بِهَا إِلَى أَبِي طَلْحَةَ، فَذَبَحَهَا وَبَعَثَ بِوَرِكَيْهَا أَوْ فَخِذَيْهَا، شَكَّ شُعْبَةُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ"فَقَبِلَهَا".
Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) says: At a place called Marr az-Zahran, we chased a hare. People ran after it, and when they became tired, I got close and caught it. I brought it to Sayyiduna Abu Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him), who slaughtered it and sent its back meat or both thighs (Sa‘id was unsure about this) to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and he accepted it.
