“I asked Jabir bin ‘Abdullah about hyenas: ‘Are they game (that can be hunted)?’ He said: ‘Yes.’ I said: ‘Can I eat them?’ He said: ‘Yes.’ I said: ‘Is this something that you heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ?’ He said: ‘Yes.’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3236)   

أَسَمِعْتَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ was asked about the hyena, and he said, "It is a prey animal and a ram is placed in it. When the forbidden (meat) is struck, this is the wording of the narration of Hajjaj." Some of them said, "When it is killed," and some of them said, "When it is attacked."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ سُئِلَ عَنِ الضَّبُعِ فَقَالَ هِيَ صَيْدٌ وَجَعَلَ فِيهَا كَبْشًا إِذَا أَصَابَهَا الْمُحْرِمُ هَذَا لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ حَجَّاجٍ قَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ إِذَا أَصَادَهَا وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ إِذَا أَصَابَهَا  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "The hyena is prey, so eat it all, and in it is a fat ram when the forbidden (meat) touches it."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الضَّبُعُ صَيْدٌ فَكُلْهَا وَفِيهَا كَبْشٌ سَمِينٌ إِذَا أَصَابَهَا الْمُحْرِمُ  

[Machine] "He hunted a gazelle with a ram."  

قَضَى فِي الضَّبُعِ بِكَبْشٍ  

[Machine] Narrated by Ikrimah, the slave of Ibn Abbas, who said: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent a hunter and he slaughtered a deer (for food), and he (the Prophet) distributed a sheep out of it." Ash-Shafi'i said in a narration not from Abu Bakr: "This hadith is not verified with a similar one, even if it stood alone." The Shaykh (referring to Ash-Shafi'i) said: "He only said this due to its discontinuation, then he confirmed it with the hadith of Ibn Abi 'Amr from Jabir, and the hadith of Ibn Abi 'Amr is a good hadith which constitutes proof. Abu 'Isa At-Tirmidhi said: "I asked Al-Bukhari about it and he said: 'It is a sahih hadith.'" And the hadith of Ikrimah has been narrated as connected.  

عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ مَوْلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ يَقُولُ أنْزَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ضَبُعًا صَيْدًا وَقَضَى فِيهَا كَبْشًا قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ فِي غَيْرِ رِوَايَةِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَهَذَا حَدِيثٌ لَا يَثْبُتُ مِثْلُهُ لَوِ انْفَرَدَ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ وَإِنَّمَا قَالَهُ لِانْقِطَاعِهِ ثُمَّ أَكَّدَهُ بِحَدِيثِ ابْنِ أَبِي عَمَّارٍ عَنْ جَابِرٍ وَحَدِيثُ ابْنِ أَبِي عَمَّارٍ حَدِيثٌ جَيِّدٌ تَقُومُ بِهِ الْحُجَّةُ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى التِّرْمِذِيُّ سَأَلْتُ عَنْهُ الْبُخَارِيَّ فَقَالَ هُوَ حَدِيثٌ صَحِيحٌ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ وَقَدْ رُوِيَ حَدِيثُ عِكْرِمَةَ مَوْصُولًا  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The hyena is a prey animal and it has made a sheep in it."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الضَّبُعُ صَيْدٌ وَجَعَلَ فِيهِ كَبْشًا  

[Machine] About Abu Zubair, and it was narrated by Al-Ajlah Al-Kundi in a raised narration, and there is disagreement about it.  

عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ وَرَوَاهُ الْأَجْلَحُ الْكِنْدِيُّ مَرْفُوعًا وَاخْتُلِفَ عَلَيْهِ  

[Machine] About the Prophet ﷺ , it is narrated that in the word "addabu" (wildcat) there is a male sheep, in the word "adhdhabee" (roe deer) there is a female sheep, in the word "arnab" (rabbit) there is a young one, and in the word "yarboo" (hare) there is a humped one. So I said: "Does it mean for Abu Zubair and what is the humped one?" Al-Azheem said: "It means the large and heavy-weighted young camel." Muhammad bin Fudayl and others narrated it from Al-Ajlah like this. It was also narrated from Al-Ajlah from Abu Zubair from Jabir from Umar bin Khattab that he said: "I do not consider it except as a judgment, and he mentioned it, and Abu Sa'ad al-Malini informed us, Abu Ahmad bin Adiy al-Hafiz informed us, Abu Ya'la narrated to us, Abu Ubaidah bin Fudayl bin 'Iyad narrated to us, Malik bin Sa'id narrated from Al-Ajlah, he said: "The Shaykh said, and this is closer to the truth, that it is attributed to Umar." And likewise.  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي الضَّبُعِ كَبْشٌ وَفِي الظَّبْيِ شَاةٌ وَفِي الْأَرْنَبِ عَنَاقٌ وَفِي الْيَرْبُوعِ جَفْرَةٌ فَقُلْتُ يَعْنِي لِأَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ ومَا الْجَفْرَةُ؟ قَالَ الْعَظِيمُ يَعْنِي عَظِيمَ الْحُمْلَانِ تَابَعَهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ فُضَيْلٍ وَغَيْرُهُ عَنِ الْأَجْلَحِ هَكَذَا 9880 وَرُوِيَ عَنِ الْأَجْلَحِ عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ قَالَ لَا أُرَاهُ إِلَّا وَقَدْ رَفَعَهُ أَنَّهُ حُكْمٌ فَذَكَرَهُ أَخْبَرَنَاهُ أَبُو سَعْدٍ الْمَالِينِيُّ أنبأ أَبُو أَحْمَدَ بْنُ عَدِيٍّ الْحَافِظُ أنبأ أَبُو يَعْلَى ثنا أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ بْنُ فُضَيْلِ بْنِ عِيَاضٍ ثنا مَالِكُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ الْأَجْلَحِ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ وَهَذَا أَقْرَبُ مِنَ الصَّوَابِ وَالصَّحِيحُ أَنَّهُ مَوْقُوفٌ عَلَى عُمَرَ ؓ وَكَذَلِكَ  

[Machine] 'Omar spent his lifetime like a lion in pursuing a sheep, like a gazelle in chasing a doe, like a jackal in searching for a hare, and like a hyena in ravaging a desert, as mentioned in my book "A Hare in Jackal and a Hyena in the Desert".'  

قَضَى عُمَرُ ؓ فِي الضَّبُعِ كَبْشًا وَفِي الظَّبْيِ شَاةً وَفِي الْأَرْنَبِ جَفْرَةً وَفِي الْيَرْبُوعِ عَنَاقًا كَذَا فِي كِتَابِي جَفْرَةً فِي الْأَرْنَبِ وَعَنَاقًا فِي الْيَرْبُوعِ  

[Machine] Abu Al-Abbas Al-Asamm narrated that Ar-Rabi'i narrated that Ash-Shafi'i narrated that Sa'id narrated from Ibn Jurayj from 'Ata that he heard Ibn Abbas saying about the hyena, "It is like a ram."  

ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ الْأَصَمُّ أنبأ الرَّبِيعُ أنبأ الشَّافِعِيُّ أنبأ سَعِيدٌ عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ عَنْ عَطَاءٍ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ يَقُولُ فِي الضَّبُعِ كَبْشٌ
