Text and translation

English translation

4354. It was narrated from 'Abdullâh bin 'Amr that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: "There is no person who kills a small bird or anything larger for no just reason, but Allâh, the Mighty and Sublime, will ask him about it." It was said: "O Messenger of Allâh, what does 'just reason' mean?" He said: "That you slaughter it and eat it, and do not cut off its head and throw it aside."[1] (Hasan)

Arabic text

4349 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ الْمُقْرِئُ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ صُهَيْبٍ، مَوْلَى ابْنِ عَامِرٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «مَا مِنْ إِنْسَانٍ قَتَلَ عُصْفُورًا فَمَا فَوْقَهَا بِغَيْرِ حَقِّهَا، إِلَّا سَأَلَهُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ عَنْهَا»، قِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، وَمَا حَقُّهَا؟ قَالَ: «يَذْبَحُهَا فَيَأْكُلُهَا، وَلَا يَقْطَعُ رَأْسَهَا يَرْمِي بِهَا»
