Arabic text

3185 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا عُقْبَةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ التَّيْمِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، قَالَ: «نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَنْ يُمَثَّلَ، بِالْبَهَائِمِ»

Commentary

Mutilation means cutting off the nose, ears and other organs of a dead person. In the pre-Islamic period, Arabs used to practice such a repulsive act with the corpse of defeated enemies. Cutting the meat of an animal into pieces after having slaughtered it is not considered mutilation.
