English translation

4604. It was narrated from Al-Miqdām bin Ma'dī Yakrib that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Verily, I have been given the Book and something like it with it, but soon a satiated man[1] will be on his couch, and he will say: 'You should adhere to this Qur'ān. Whatever you find permitted in it, take it as permissible, and whatever you find forbidden in it, take it as forbidden.' But Lo! The domesticated donkey is not permissible to you (to eat), nor every predator that has fangs. Nor the lost property of a Mu'āhid,[2] unless its owner has given it up. Whoever stops among a people, they are obliged to entertain him, and if they do not entertain him, then he has the right to take from them an amount equivalent to that with which they should have entertained him." (Saḥīḥ)

4604 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ بْنُ نَجْدَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَمْرِو بْنُ كَثِيرِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ، عَنْ حَرِيزِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي عَوْفٍ، عَنِ الْمِقْدَامِ بْنِ مَعْدِي كَرِبَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: «أَلَا إِنِّي أُوتِيتُ الْكِتَابَ، وَمِثْلَهُ مَعَهُ أَلَا يُوشِكُ رَجُلٌ شَبْعَانُ عَلَى أَرِيكَتِهِ يَقُولُ عَلَيْكُمْ بِهَذَا الْقُرْآنِ فَمَا وَجَدْتُمْ فِيهِ مِنْ حَلَالٍ فَأَحِلُّوهُ، وَمَا وَجَدْتُمْ فِيهِ مِنْ حَرَامٍ فَحَرِّمُوهُ، أَلَا لَا يَحِلُّ لَكُمْ لَحْمُ الْحِمَارِ الْأَهْلِيِّ، وَلَا كُلُّ ذِي نَابٍ مِنَ السَّبُعِ، وَلَا لُقَطَةُ مُعَاهِدٍ، إِلَّا أَنْ يَسْتَغْنِيَ عَنْهَا صَاحِبُهَا، وَمَنْ نَزَلَ بِقَوْمٍ فَعَلَيْهِمْ أَنْ يَقْرُوهُ فَإِنْ لَمْ يَقْرُوهُ فَلَهُ أَنْ يُعْقِبَهُمْ بِمِثْلِ قِرَاهُ»
