Hadith #168
Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ أَخْبَرَنَا يَحْيَى يَعْنِي ابْنَ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ نَافِعٍ أَخْبَرَهُ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ أَنَّ امْرَأَةً كَانَتْ تَرْعَى عَلَى آلِ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ غَنَمًا بِسَلْعٍ فَخَافَتْ عَلَى شَاةٍ مِنْهَا الْمَوْتَ فَذَبَحَتْهَا بِحَجَرٍ فَذُكِرَ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَمَرَهُمْ بِأَكْلِهَا
English Translation
It was narrated from Ibn 'Umar (رضي الله عنهما) — via Yazid ibn Harun, from Yahya ibn Sa'id, from Nafi' — that a woman was shepherding the flock of the family of Ka'b ibn Malik at Sal'. She feared that one of the sheep would die, so she slaughtered it with a rock. This was mentioned to the Prophet ﷺ, and he commanded them to eat it.
