Muwatta Malik #1733
Madina
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَحَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ لَوْ رَأَيْتُ الظِّبَاءَ بِالْمَدِينَةِ تَرْتَعُ مَا ذَعَرْتُهَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم
" مَا بَيْنَ لاَبَتَيْهَا حَرَامٌ " .
Malik related to me from Ibn Shihab from Said ibn al-Musayyab
that Abu Hurayra said, "Had I seen a gazelle at Madina, I would have
left it to graze and would not have frightened it. The Messenger of
Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, 'What is between
the two tracts of black stones is a Haram.' "
