Bayhaqi 9909 — What game the muhrim may eat

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو طَاهِرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مَحْمَشٍ الْفَقِيهُ مِنْ أَصْلِ سَمَاعِهِ، أنبأ أَبُو عُثْمَانَ عَمْرُو بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْبَصْرِيُّ، ثنا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَهَّابِ، أنبأ خَالِدُ بْنُ مَخْلَدٍ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، ثنا أَبُو حَازِمِ بْنُ دِينَارٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: كُنْتُ يَوْمًا جَالِسًا مَعَ رَهْطٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي مَنْزِلٍ فِي طَرِيقِ مَكَّةَ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَازِلٌ أَمَامَنَا وَالْقَوْمُ مُحْرِمُونَ وَأَنَا غَيْرُ مُحْرِمٍ، قَالَ: فَأَبْصَرَ الْقَوْمُ حِمَارًا وَحْشِيًّا وَأَنَا مَشْغُولٌ أَخْصِفُ نَعْلِي فَلَمْ يُؤْذِنُونِي بِهِ فَالْتَفَتُّ فَأَبْصَرْتُهُ، فَقُمْتُ إِلَى فَرَسِي فَأَسْرَجْتُهُ، ثُمَّ رَكِبْتُهُ وَنَسِيتُ السَّوْطَ وَالرُّمْحَ، فَقُلْتُ لَهُمْ: نَاوِلُونِي السَّوْطَ وَالرُّمْحَ، فَقَالُوا: لَا نُعِينُكَ عَلَيْهِ بِشَيْءٍ، فَنَزَلْتُ فَأَخَذْتُهُمَا وَرَكِبْتُ فَشَدَدْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَقَتَلْتُهُ، ثُمَّ جِئْتُ بِهِ أَجُرُّهُ قَدْ مَاتَ فَوَقَعُوا فِيهِ يَأْكُلُونَهُ، ثُمَّ إِنَّهُمْ شَكُّوا فِي أَكْلِهِمْ إِيَّاهُ وَهُمْ حُرُمٌ، فَرُحْنَا وَخَبَّأْتُ الْعَضُدَ مَعِي فَأَدْرَكَنَا رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَسَأَلْنَاهُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ، فَقَالَ: " مَعَكُمْ مِنْهُ شَيْءٌ؟ " قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ فَنَاوَلْتُهُ الْعَضُدَ فَأَكَلَهَا وَهُوَ مُحْرِمٌ حَتَّى تَعَرَّقَهَا رَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ فِي الصَّحِيحِ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ، وَأَخْرَجَهُ مُسْلِمٌ مِنْ وَجْهٍ آخَرَ عَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ.
Abdullah bin Abi Qatadah narrates from his father (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: One day we were sitting with some of the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) on the road to Makkah, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was ahead of us. The people were in the state of ihram and I was not in ihram. The people saw a wild donkey while I was busy mending my sandal. They did not tell me. Suddenly I saw it, so I got up and went to my horse, saddled it and mounted it, and I forgot my whip and my spear. I said to them: Hand me my whip and my spear. They said: We will not help you with it in any way. I dismounted, took them, and mounted again firmly. I killed it and dragged it back, and it was dead. They fell upon it, eating it. Then they had doubts about their eating it, because they were in the state of ihram. We set off, and I hid one of its forelegs with me. We caught up with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and asked about it. He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Do you have any of it with you?" I said: Yes. I gave him (peace and blessings be upon him) its foreleg and he (peace and blessings be upon him) ate it, although he (peace and blessings be upon him) was in the state of ihram, until he (peace and blessings be upon him) stripped the meat from the bone.
