وَحَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ صَالِحِ بْنِ كَيْسَانَ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي، عُمَرَ - وَاللَّفْظُ لَهُ - حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، حَدَّثَنَا صَالِحُ بْنُ كَيْسَانَ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا مُحَمَّدٍ، مَوْلَى أَبِي قَتَادَةَ يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا قَتَادَةَ، يَقُولُ خَرَجْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم حَتَّى إِذَا كُنَّا بِالْقَاحَةِ فَمِنَّا الْمُحْرِمُ وَمِنَّا غَيْرُ الْمُحْرِمِ إِذْ بَصُرْتُ بِأَصْحَابِي يَتَرَاءَوْنَ شَيْئًا فَنَظَرْتُ فَإِذَا حِمَارُ وَحْشٍ . فَأَسْرَجْتُ فَرَسِي وَأَخَذْتُ رُمْحِي ثُمَّ رَكِبْتُ فَسَقَطَ مِنِّي سَوْطِي فَقُلْتُ لأَصْحَابِي وَكَانُوا مُحْرِمِينَ نَاوِلُونِي السَّوْطَ . فَقَالُوا وَاللَّهِ لاَ نُعِينُكَ عَلَيْهِ بِشَىْءٍ . فَنَزَلْتُ فَتَنَاوَلْتُهُ ثُمَّ رَكِبْتُ فَأَدْرَكْتُ الْحِمَارَ مِنْ خَلْفِهِ وَهُوَ وَرَاءَ أَكَمَةٍ فَطَعَنْتُهُ بِرُمْحِي فَعَقَرْتُهُ فَأَتَيْتُ بِهِ أَصْحَابِي فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ كُلُوهُ . وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ لاَ تَأْكُلُوهُ . وَكَانَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَمَامَنَا فَحَرَّكْتُ فَرَسِي فَأَدْرَكْتُهُ فَقَالَ " هُوَ حَلاَلٌ فَكُلُوهُ " .
Qutayba ibn Sa'id narrated to us: Sufyan narrated to us, from Salih ibn Kaysan. In another chain, Ibn Abi Umar narrated to us—whose wording is given here—Sufyan narrated to us: Salih ibn Kaysan narrated to us. He said: I heard Abu Muhammad, the client of Abu Qatada, say: I heard Abu Qatada say: We went out with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). When we were at al-Qaha, some of us were in ihram and some were not. I saw my companions looking at something, so I looked and saw a wild donkey. I saddled my horse, took my spear, and mounted. My whip fell from me, so I said to my companions, who were in ihram: ‘Hand me the whip.’ They said: ‘By Allah, we will not help you with it at all.’ I dismounted and picked it up, then mounted again. I caught up with the donkey from behind a hill and struck it down with my spear. I brought it to my companions. Some said: ‘Eat it,’ and others said: ‘Do not eat it.’ The Prophet (ﷺ) was ahead of us, so I spurred my horse and caught up with him. He said: ‘It is lawful, so eat it.’
