Sahih al-Bukhari
Sahih al-Bukhari 2572
حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ قَالَ أَنْفَجْنَا أَرْنَبًا بِمَرِّ الظَّهْرَانِ، فَسَعَى الْقَوْمُ فَلَغَبُوا، فَأَدْرَكْتُهَا فَأَخَذْتُهَا، فَأَتَيْتُ بِهَا أَبَا طَلْحَةَ فَذَبَحَهَا، وَبَعَثَ بِهَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِوَرِكِهَا ـ أَوْ فَخِذَيْهَا قَالَ فَخِذَيْهَا لاَ شَكَّ فِيهِ ـ فَقَبِلَهُ. قُلْتُ وَأَكَلَ مِنْهُ قَالَ وَأَكَلَ مِنْهُ. ثُمَّ قَالَ بَعْدُ قَبِلَهُ.
Anas reported that they startled a rabbit at Marr al-Zahran. The people pursued it and became tired, but I caught it and brought it to Abu Talha, who slaughtered it and sent its hind leg—or thighs; the narrator then said, “The thighs, without doubt”—to the Messenger of Allah. He accepted it. Anas asked whether he ate from it, and was told that he did; later he again said that the Prophet accepted it.
