English Translation

It was narrated from Jabir ibn Samura (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man was at al-Harra with his father when another man told him: 'My she-camel has gone missing. If you find her, keep her.' The man found the camel, but its owner did not come until it fell ill. His wife said: 'Slaughter it so we can eat it.' He refused, and it died. He then went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about this matter, and the Prophet ﷺ gave him a ruling on it.
