61. Sacrificial Animals
٦١۔ كِتَابُ الضَّحَايَا
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade drinking with the Bedouins. Abu Dawood said: Ghundar asked Ibn Abbas about this, and Abu Dawood said: My name is Abu Rihana Abdullah ibn Matar.
نَهَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ مُعَاقَرَةِ الْأَعْرَابِ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ غُنْدَرٌ أَوْقَفَهُ عَلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ اسْمُ أَبِي رَيْحَانَةَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مَطَرٍ
[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "There is no 'aqar (pasture) in Islam". Abu Zakariya said, "Al-'aqar refers to the Bedouin Arabs when they gather at the watering hole. One of them competes against the other, and one of them causes his camel to drink the water while the other prevents his camel from drinking so as to deprive him (of water). They do this in disobedience to Allah and His Messenger." Abu Sulaiman al-Khattabi mentioned to me that what he had heard from Mu'aqarah al-A'rab is that two men compete with each other and each one argues with his companion. One of them deprives the other of a number of his camels' drinking water, and his companion also deprives him (of water). Whichever of the two has the most power in depriving the other, he is the one who wins. He disliked (the taste of) their meat, lest it becomes something they give preference to over Allah.
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ لَا عَقْرَ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ قَالَ أَبُو زَكَرِيَّا الْعَقْرُ يَعْنِي الْأَعْرَابَ عِنْدَ الْمَاءِ يَعْقِرُ هَذَا وَيَعْقِرُ هَذَا فَيَأْكُلُونَ لِغَيْرِ اللهِ وَرَسُولِهِ وَقَالَ أَبُو سُلَيْمَانَ الْخَطَّابِيُّ فِيمَا بَلَغَنِي عَنْهُ مُعَاقَرَةُ الْأَعْرَابِ أَنْ يَتَبَارَى الرَّجُلَانِ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمَا يُجَادِلُ صَاحِبَهُ فَيَعْقِرُ هَذَا عَدَدًا مِنْ إِبِلِهِ وَيَعْقِرُ صَاحِبُهُ فَأَيُّهُمَا كَانَ أَكْثَرَ عَقْرًا غَلَبَ صَاحِبَهُ وَكَرِهَ لُحُومَهَا لِئَلَّا يَكُونَ مِمَّا أُهِلَّ بِهِ لِغَيْرِ اللهِ
[Machine] "To buy the house, extract the spring, and what is similar to that, and then sacrifice a bird for it," Abu Ubaid said, "and this interpretation in the hadith means that they seek protection through this action, fearing that if they do not sacrifice and feed, something harmful from the jinn will afflict them. So the Prophet ﷺ invalidated this practice and forbade it."
أَنْ تَشْتَرِيَ الدَّارَ وَتَسْتَخْرِجَ الْعَيْنَ وَمَا أَشْبَهَ ذَلِكَ فَتَذْبَحَ لَهَا ذَبِيحَةً لِلطِّيَرَةِ قَالَ أَبُو عُبَيْدٍ وَهَذَا التَّفْسِيرُ فِي الْحَدِيثِ مَعْنَاهُ أَنَّهُمْ يَتَطَيَّرُونَ إِلَى هَذَا الْفِعْلِ مَخَافَةَ أَنَّهُمْ إِنْ لَمْ يَذْبَحُوا فَيُطْعِمُوا أَنْ يُصِيبَهُمْ فِيهَا شَيْءٌ مِنَ الْجِنِّ يُؤْذِيهِمْ فَأَبْطَلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ هَذَا وَنَهَى عَنْهُ
