“Some people were bringing meat to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he said: ‘The best meat is the meat of the back.’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3308)   

أحمد:١٧٥٩حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا مِسْعَرٌ عَنْ شَيْخٍ مِنْ فَهْمٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ جَعْفَرٍ قَالَ

أُتِيَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِلَحْمٍ فَجَعَلَ الْقَوْمُ يُلَقُّونَهُ اللَّحْمَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّ أَطْيَبَ اللَّحْمِ لَحْمُ الظَّهْرِ
