4407. It was narrated that Abū Sa'eed Al-Khudrī said: "A man from among the Anṣār had a she-camel which used to graze in front of Uḥud. Something happened to it, and he slaughtered it with a stake." – (Ayyūb, one of the narrators, said) I said to Zaid: "A stake of wood or of iron?" He said: "No, of wood." – "Then he went to the Prophet ﷺ and asked him, and he told him to eat it." (Sahīh)

Arabic text

4402 - أَخْبَرَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَعْمَرٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَبَّانُ بْنُ هِلَالٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرُ بْنُ حَازِمٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ - فَلَقِيتُ: زَيْدَ بْنَ أَسْلَمَ - فَحَدَّثَنِي، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ قَالَ: كَانَتْ لِرَجُلٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ نَاقَةٌ تَرْعَى فِي قِبَلِ أُحُدٍ، فَعُرِضَ لَهَا، فَنَحَرَهَا بِوَتَدٍ، فَقُلْتُ لِزَيْدٍ: وَتَدٌ مِنْ خَشَبٍ أَوْ حَدِيدٍ؟ قَالَ: لَا. بَلْ خَشَبٌ، فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَسَأَلَهُ: «فَأَمَرَهُ بِأَكْلِهَا»

Commentary

'He told him to eat it' means he gave him permission to eat it or in reality it signifies a command, because from the point of view of the Divine law it is not allowed to waste lawful things.
