[31] مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ...

Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Giyas Bin Ibrahim, from his father, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abd Allah -asws having said: ‘The one in Ihraam can kill the wasp, and the eagle, and the treacherous black snake, and the wolf, and whatever he fears if it pursues him’. And he -asws said: ‘The vicious dog, it is the wolf’ .

Muhammad Bin Yahya, form Ahmad Bin Muhammad, form Ibn Mahboub, from Aasim Bin Humeyd, from Ali Bin Abu Al Mugra who said, ‘I said to Abu Abd Allah -asws , ‘May I be sacrificed for you -asws ! The dead, can one benefit from it with anything’. So he -asws said: ‘No’.

I said, ‘It has reached us that Rasool-Allah -saww passed by a dead sheep, so he -saww said: ‘What was upon the owners of this sheep that when they could not benefit by its flesh, that they did not benefit from its skin?’ He -asws said: ‘That was a sheep of Sawda Bin Zam’at, wife of the Prophet -saww , and it was thin and weak, could not be benefit by its flesh. So she left it until it was dead.

So Rasool-Allah -saww said: ‘What was upon the owners of this sheep that when they could not benefit by its flesh, that they did not benefit from its skin?’ i.e., slaughtering it’.
