4415. It was narrated that Râfi' bin Khadîj said: "I said: 'O Messenger of Allâh, we are going to meet the enemy tomorrow, and we do not have any knives.' He said: 'If the blood is shed and the name of Allâh is mentioned, then eat, unlike (it is slaughtered) with teeth or nails, and I will tell you about that. As for teeth, they are bones, and as for nails, they are the knives of the Ethiopians.' We acquired some spoils of war including sheep or camels, and a camel ran away, so a man shot an arrow at it and stopped it. The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'Some of these animals' – or 'these camels' – 'are untamed like wild animals, so if one of them goes out of your control, do the same.'" (Ṣaḥīḥ)
