Bayhaqi 9907 — What game the muhrim may eat

أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أنبأ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ، أنبأ بِشْرُ بْنُ مُوسَى، ثنا الْحُمَيْدِيُّ، ثنا سُفْيَانُ، ثنا صَالِحُ بْنُ كَيْسَانَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَا مُحَمَّدٍ، يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَا قَتَادَةَ، يَقُولُ: خَرَجْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَتَّى إِذَا كُنَّا بِالْقَاحَةِ وَمِنَّا الْمُحْرِمُ، وَغَيْرُ الْمُحْرِمِ إِذْ بَصُرْتُ بِأَصْحَابِي يَتَرَاءَوْنَ شَيْئًا، فَنَظَرْتُ فَإِذَا أَنَا بِحِمَارِ وَحْشٍ، فَأَسْرَجْتُ فَرَسِي وَرَكِبْتُ فَأَخَذْتُ رُمْحِي فَسَقَطَتْ سَوْطِي فَقُلْتُ لِأَصْحَابِي: نَاوِلُونِي، وَكَانُوا مُحْرِمِينَ فَقَالُوا: لَا وَاللهِ لَا نُعِينُكَ عَلَيْهِ بِشَيْءٍ، فَتَنَاوَلْتُ سَوْطِي، ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُ الْحِمَارَ مِنْ خَلْفِهِ وَهُوَ وَرَاءَ أَكَمَةٍ ⦗٣٠٧⦘ فَطَعَنْتُهُ بِرُمْحِي فَعَقَرْتُهُ فَأَتَيْتُ بِهِ أَصْحَابِي، فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ: كُلُوهُ، وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ: لَا تَأْكُلُوهُ، قَالَ: وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَمَامَنَا فَحَرَّكْتُ فَرَسِي فَأَدْرَكْتُهُ فَسَأَلْتُهُ، فَقَالَ: " هُوَ حَلَالٌ فَكُلُوهُ " رَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ فِي الصَّحِيحِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ، وَرَوَاهُ مُسْلِمٌ عَنْ قُتَيْبَةَ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ.
Abu Muhammad says that he heard Sayyiduna Abu Qatadah (may Allah be pleased with him) saying: We set out with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and when we reached a place called al-Qahah, some of our companions were in the state of ihram and some were not. Suddenly I saw that my companions were looking at something; I looked too, and it was a wild donkey. I saddled my horse and mounted it, I took hold of my spear, and my whip fell. I said to my companions: Hand it to me — and they were in the state of ihram. They said: By Allah! We will not help you with it at all. I picked up my whip, then went after the donkey from behind, and it was behind a mound. I struck it with my spear and brought it down. I brought it to my companions; some of them said: Eat it, and some said: Do not eat it. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was ahead of us; I spurred my horse on, caught up with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and asked him, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "It is lawful, so eat it."
