Arabic text

4447 - أَخْبَرَنِي عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي سَهْلُ بْنُ بَكَّارٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا وُهَيْبُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، عَنْ ابْنِ طَاوُسٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو قَالَ مَرَّةً: عَنْ أَبِيهِ، وَقَالَ مَرَّةً: عَنْ جَدِّهِ، " أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: نَهَى يَوْمَ خَيْبَرَ عَنْ لُحُومِ الْحُمُرِ الْأَهْلِيَّةِ، وَعَنِ الْجَلَّالَةِ، وَعَنْ رُكُوبِهَا، وَعَنْ أَكْلِ لَحْمِهَا "

    [1] The animal that eats dung.

Commentary

So far as the flesh of domestic donkeys is concerned, it is absolutely unlawful, whether or not they eat filth, although riding them is permitted. Its sweat, etc., is pure. But the filth-eating animal, whichever it might be, if it eats filth to such an extent that its traces are sensed in its flesh, for instance, if it stinks or tastes bad, or its color changes, then its eating is unlawful. And riding such animals is also unlawful.
