The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَعَن أبي سعيدٍ الخدريِّ قَالَ: قُلْنَا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ نَنْحَرُ النَّاقَةَ ونذبح الْبَقَرَة وَالشَّاة فنجد فِي بَطنهَا جَنِينا أَنُلْقِيهِ أَمْ نَأْكُلُهُ؟ قَالَ: «كُلُوهُ إِنْ شِئْتُمْ فَإِنَّ ذَكَاتَهُ ذَكَاةُ أُمِّهِ» . رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَابْن مَاجَه
Abu Sa'id al-Khudri told th at they said, “Messenger of God, we cut the throat of a she-camel and slaughter a cow and a sheep and find an embryo in its womb. Shall we throw it away or eat it?” He replied, “Eat it if you wish, for its slaughter is included when its mother is slaughtered.”
Abu Dawud and Ibn Majah transmitted it.
