Why did you not take off its skin? You could put it to use, after tanning it. They (the Companions) said: It was dead. Upon, this he (the Messenger of Allah) said: Only its eating is prohibited. Abu bakr and Ibn Umar in their narrations said: It is narrated from Maimuna (may Allah be pleased with her).  

تُصُدِّقَ عَلَى مَوْلاَةٍ لِمَيْمُونَةَ بِشَاةٍ فَمَاتَتْ فَمَرَّ بِهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ هَلاَّ أَخَذْتُمْ إِهَابَهَا فَدَبَغْتُمُوهُ فَانْتَفَعْتُمْ بِهِ فَقَالُوا إِنَّهَا مَيْتَةٌ فَقَالَ إِنَّمَا حَرُمَ أَكْلُهَا قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ فِي حَدِيثِهِمَا عَنْ مَيْمُونَةَ ؓ  

“Why don’t they take its skin and ten it, and make us of it?” They said: “O Messenger of Allah, it is dead meat.”* He said: “It is only unlawful to eat it.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3610)   

مَرَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِشَاةٍ مِنَ الصَّدَقَةِ مَيْتَةٍ أُعْطِيَتْهَا مَوْلَاةٌ لِمَيْمُونَةَ فَقَالَ «أَلَا أَخَذُوا إِهَابَهَا فَدَبَغُوهَا فَانْتَفَعُوا بِهَا؟ » فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّهَا مَيْتَةٌ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «إِنَّمَا حُرِّمَ أَكْلُهَا»  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ passed by a sheep that was given to us as charity when it was dead. He said, "What is wrong with the people of this sheep if they take its skin and tan it to benefit from it?" They said, "O Messenger of Allah, it is dead." He said, "Only its consumption is prohibited." Sufyan was told, "Ma'mar would not say 'tan it' and would say Al-Zuhri used to disapprove of tanning." Sufyan said, "I have memorized it, and what we wanted from it is this word that others have reported, 'Only its consumption is prohibited.' " And sometimes Sufyan did not mention it (i.e., this narration) without mentioning Maimuna. When he spoke about it, he would say, "Maimuna said..."  

مَرَّ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عَلَى شَاةٍ لِمَوْلَاةٍ لَنَا قَدْ أُعْطِيَتْهَا مِنَ الصَّدَقَةِ مَيْتَةٍ فَقَالَ «مَا عَلَى أَهْلِ هَذِهِ لَوْ أَخَذُوا إِهَابَهَا فَدَبَغُوهُ فَانْتَفَعُوا بِهِ؟» قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّهَا مَيْتَةٌ فَقَالَ «إِنَّمَا حَرُمَ أَكْلُهَا» فَقِيلَ لِسُفْيَانَ إِنَّ مَعْمَرًا لَا يَقُولُ فِيهِ «فَدَبَغُوهُ» وَيَقُولُ كَانَ الزُّهْرِيُّ يُنْكِرُ الدِّبَاغَ فَقَالَ سُفْيَانُ لَكِنِّي حَفِظْتُهُ وَإِنَّمَا أَرَدْنَا مِنْهُ هَذِهِ الْكَلِمَةَ الَّتِي نَقَلَهَا غَيْرُهُ «إِنَّمَا حَرُمَ أَكْلُهَا» وَكَانَ سُفْيَانُ رُبَّمَا لَمْ يَذْكُرْ فِيهِ مَيْمُونَةَ فَإِذَا وَقَفَ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ فِيهِ مَيْمُونَةُ  

[Machine] The Prophet passed by a sheep that belonged to Mawlaat Maymuna, which had been given to her as charity but had died. He said, "Why don't you take its skin and tan it so that you can benefit from it?" They replied, "O Messenger of Allah, it is dead." He said, "Only its consumption has been prohibited."  

مَرَّ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِشَاةٍ لِمَوْلَاةٍ لِمَيْمُونَةَ قَدْ أُعْطِيَتْهَا مِنَ الصَّدَقَةِ مَيْتَةٍ فَقَالَ «أَلَا أَخَذُوا إِهَابَهَا فَدَبَغُوهُ فَانْتَفَعُوا بِهِ؟» فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّهَا مَيْتَةٌ فَقَالَ «إِنَّمَا حُرِّمَ أَكْلُهَا»  

[Machine] "Hanbali (Maymuna’s slave) carried a dead sheep while the Prophet ﷺ was passing. The Prophet ﷺ asked, 'What will the family of this sheep do if they take its hide and tan it in order to benefit from it?' They replied, 'O Messenger of Allah, it's already dead.' He said, 'Only its consumption is prohibited.'"  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ مَرَّ بِشَاةٍ لِمَوْلَاةٍ لِمَيْمُونَةَ مَيْتَةٍ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «مَا عَلَى أَهْلِ هَذِهِ لَوْ أَخَذُوا إِهَابَهَا فَدَبَغُوهُ فَانْتَفَعُوا بِهِ؟» فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّهَا مَيْتَةُ قَالَ «إِنَّمَا حُرِّمَ أَكْلُهَا»  

“Why don’t they take its skin and ten it, and make us of it?” They said: “O Messenger of Allah, it is dead meat.”* He said: “It is only unlawful to eat it.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3610)   

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ مَرَّ بِشَاةٍ مَيِّتَةٍ لِمَوْلَاةِ مَيْمُونَةَ فَقَالَ أَلَا أَخَذُوا إِهَابَهَا فَدَبَغُوهُ فَانْتَفَعُوا بِهِ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّهَا مَيْتَةٌ؟ قَالَ إِنَّمَا حُرِّمَ أَكْلُهَا
