[3216] 377 - (1325) Mûsâ bin Salamah Al-Hudhâlî said: "Sinân bin Salamah and I set out for 'Umrah." He said: "Sinân set out with a sacrificial camel that he was driving, and it stopped on the road due to exhaustion. He was confused about what to do with it: If it was too exhausted to move, how could he bring it? He said: 'When I reach the city I shall certainly find out about it.'" He (Mûsâ) said: "The next morning we stopped at Al-Bathâ' and he said: 'Go to Ibn 'Abbâs and speak to him.'" ("I went to him and) told him about his camel, and he said: 'You have come to one who is well informed. The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ sent sixteen camels with a man, and put him in charge of them. He set out, then he came back and said: "O Messenger of Allâh, what should I do if any of them becomes too exhausted to move?" He said: "Slaughter it, then dip the shoes (on the garland) in its blood, and put them on its hump, but neither you nor any of the people who are with you should eat from it."
