[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said that a woman was punished for imprisoning a cat until it died of hunger. He entered the fire and said to her, "By Allah, I do not know whether you fed her or gave her water while you imprisoned her, or whether you let her eat from the earth's scraps until she died of hunger." And Ali ibn Ahmad ibn Abdan informed us that Ahmad ibn Ubaid Al-Saffar narrated from Ibn Al-Fadl who narrated from Ismail who narrated from Malik, and he mentioned it in his chain of narration in a similar manner except that he did not mention at the end "until she died of hunger."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ عُذِّبَتِ امْرَأَةٌ فِي هِرَّةٍ حَبَسَتْهَا حَتَّى مَاتَتْ جُوعًا فَدَخَلْتُ فِيهَا النَّارَ فَقَالَ لَهَا وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ لَا أَنْتِ أَطْعَمْتِيهَا وَسَقَيْتِيهَا حِينَ حَبَسْتِيهَا وَلَا أَنْتِ أَرْسَلْتِيهَا تَأْكُلُ مِنْ خَشَاشِ الْأَرْضِ حَتَّى مَاتَتْ جُوعًا 15816 وَأَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَبْدَانَ أنبأ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ الصَّفَّارُ ثنا ابْنُ الْفَضْلِ ثنا إِسْمَاعِيلُ عَنْ مَالِكٍ فَذَكَرَهُ بِإِسْنَادِهِ نَحْوَهُ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَذْكُرْ فِي آخِرِهِ حَتَّى مَاتَتْ جُوعًا
