حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو كَامِلٍ الْجَحْدَرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَوْهَبٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَاجًّا، وَخَرَجْنَا مَعَهُ، قَالَ: فَصَرَفَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ فِيهِمْ أَبُو قَتَادَةَ، فَقَالَ: «خُذُوا سَاحِلَ الْبَحْرِ حَتَّى تَلْقَوْنِي» قَالَ: فَأَخَذُوا سَاحِلَ الْبَحْرِ، فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفُوا قِبَلَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَحْرَمُوا كُلُّهُمْ، إِلَّا أَبَا قَتَادَةَ، فَإِنَّهُ لَمْ يُحْرِمْ، فَبَيْنَمَا هُمْ يَسِيرُونَ إِذْ رَأَوْا حُمُرَ وَحْشٍ، فَحَمَلَ عَلَيْهَا أَبُو قَتَادَةَ، فَعَقَرَ مِنْهَا أَتَانًا، فَنَزَلُوا فَأَكَلُوا مِنْ لَحْمِهَا، قَالَ فَقَالُوا: أَكَلْنَا لَحْمًا وَنَحْنُ مُحْرِمُونَ، قَالَ: فَحَمَلُوا مَا بَقِيَ مِنْ لَحْمِ الْأَتَانِ، فَلَمَّا أَتَوْا رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّا كُنَّا أَحْرَمْنَا، وَكَانَ أَبُو قَتَادَةَ لَمْ يُحْرِمْ، فَرَأَيْنَا حُمُرَ وَحْشٍ، فَحَمَلَ عَلَيْهَا أَبُو قَتَادَةَ، فَعَقَرَ مِنْهَا أَتَانًا، فَنَزَلْنَا فَأَكَلْنَا مِنْ لَحْمِهَا، فَقُلْنَا: نَأْكُلُ لَحْمَ صَيْدٍ وَنَحْنُ مُحْرِمُونَ، فَحَمَلْنَا مَا بَقِيَ مِنْ لَحْمِهَا، فَقَالَ: «هَلْ مِنْكُمْ أَحَدٌ أَمَرَهُ أَوْ أَشَارَ إِلَيْهِ بِشَيْءٍ؟» قَالَ قَالُوا: لَا، قَالَ: «فَكُلُوا مَا بَقِيَ مِنْ لَحْمِهَا».

The Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) set out for Pilgrimage and we also set out along with him. He (Abu Qatada رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ) said: There proceeded on some of his Companions and Abu Qatada رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ was (one of them). He (the Prophet) said: You proceed along the coastline till you meet me. He (Abu Qatada) said: So they proceeded ahead of the Prophet of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌), all of them had entered upon the state of Ihram, except Abu Qatada رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ ; he had not put on ihram. As they went on they saw a wild ass, and Abu Qatada رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ attacked it and cut off its hind legs. They got down and ate its meat. They said: We ate meat In the state of Ihram. They carried the meat that was left of it. As they came to the Messenger of Allah (way peace be upon him) they said: Messenger of Allah, we were in the state of Ihram whereas Abu Qatada رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ was not. We saw a wild ass and Abu Qatada رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ attacked it and cut off its hind legs. We got down and ate its meat and we thus ate the meat of a game while we were In the state of Ihram. We have (carried to you) what was left out of its meat. Thereupon he (the holy Prophet) said: Did anyone among you command him (to hunt) or point to him with anything (to do so)? They said: No. Thereupon he said: Then eat what is left out of its meat.
