Muwatta Malik #1090
Slaughtering Animals
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، أَنَّ رَجُلاً، مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ مِنْ بَنِي حَارِثَةَ كَانَ يَرْعَى لِقْحَةً لَهُ بِأُحُدٍ فَأَصَابَهَا الْمَوْتُ فَذَكَّاهَا بِشِظَاظٍ فَسُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ
" لَيْسَ بِهَا بَأْسٌ فَكُلُوهَا " .
Yahya related to me from Malik from Zayd ibn Aslam from Ata ibn
Yasar that a man from the Ansar of the tribe of Banu Haritha was
herding a pregnant she-camel at Uhud. It was about to die, so he
slaughtered it with a sharp stake. The Messenger of Allah was asked
about that, and he said, "There is no harm in it, eat it."
