English translation
5501. Narrated Ka’b that a slave-girl of theirs used to shepherd some sheep at Sal’ (a mountain near Al-Madīna). On seeing one of her sheep dying, she broke a stone and slaughtered it. Ka’b said to his family, “Do not eat (of it) till I go to the Prophet ﷺ and ask him, or, till I send someone to ask him.” So he went to the Prophet ﷺ or sent someone to him. The Prophet ﷺ permitted (them) to eat it.
