Sahih al-Bukhari 2236
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ أَبِي رَبَاحٍ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ عَامَ الْفَتْحِ، وَهُوَ بِمَكَّةَ " إِنَّ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ حَرَّمَ بَيْعَ الْخَمْرِ وَالْمَيْتَةِ وَالْخِنْزِيرِ وَالأَصْنَامِ " . فَقِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، أَرَأَيْتَ شُحُومَ الْمَيْتَةِ فَإِنَّهَا يُطْلَى بِهَا السُّفُنُ، وَيُدْهَنُ بِهَا الْجُلُودُ، وَيَسْتَصْبِحُ بِهَا النَّاسُ. فَقَالَ " لاَ، هُوَ حَرَامٌ ". ثُمَّ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ " قَاتَلَ اللَّهُ الْيَهُودَ، إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَمَّا حَرَّمَ شُحُومَهَا جَمَلُوهُ ثُمَّ بَاعُوهُ فَأَكَلُوا ثَمَنَهُ ". قَالَ أَبُو عَاصِمٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ، كَتَبَ إِلَىَّ عَطَاءٌ سَمِعْتُ جَابِرًا ـ رضى الله عنه ـ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم.
Qutayba narrated to us: al-Layth narrated to us, from Yazid ibn Abi Habib, from Ata ibn Abi Rabah, from Jabir ibn Abdullah, may Allah be pleased with them both, who said that he heard the Messenger of Allah say in the year of the Conquest, while in Mecca: “Allah and His Messenger have forbidden the sale of wine, carrion, pigs, and idols.” It was said, “Messenger of Allah, what about the fats of carrion? They are used to grease ships and hides, and people use them to light lamps.” He replied, “No, it is forbidden.” The Messenger of Allah then said: “May Allah condemn the Jews! When Allah forbade them these fats, they rendered them, sold them, and consumed their price.”
Abu Asim said: Abd al-Hamid narrated to us: Yazid narrated to us: Ata wrote to me, saying that he heard Jabir, may Allah be pleased with him, report from the Prophet.
Translation notes
