Commentary
Jābir ﷺ reported the action of the Prophet ﷺ; and this action probably took place due to a reason, or perhaps to show the permissibility. So it cannot be contrary to the previously mentioned saying of the Prophet ﷺ. Also there is a rule that the saying of the Prophet ﷺ gets precedence over his action.
