Once Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by a dead sheep and said to the people, "Wouldn't you benefit by its skin?" The people replied that it was dead. The Prophet ﷺ said, "But its eating only is illegal."  

أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَرَّ بِشَاةٍ مَيِّتَةٍ فَقَالَ هَلاَّ اسْتَمْتَعْتُمْ بِإِهَابِهَا قَالُوا إِنَّهَا مَيِّتَةٌ قَالَ إِنَّمَا حَرُمَ أَكْلُهَا  

Once Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by a dead sheep and said (to the people), "Why don't you use its hide?" They said, "But it is dead," He said, "Only eating it, is prohibited."  

أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَرَّ بِشَاةٍ مَيِّتَةٍ فَقَالَ هَلاَّ اسْتَمْتَعْتُمْ بِإِهَابِهَا قَالُوا إِنَّهَا مَيِّتَةٌ قَالَ إِنَّمَا حَرُمَ أَكْلُهَا  

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 ؓ  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw a dead goat, which had been given in charity to the freed slave-girl of Maimuna. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Why don't you make use of its skin? They (the Companions around the Holy Prophet) said: It is dead. Upon this he said: It is the eating (of the dead animal) which is prohibited.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَجَدَ شَاةً مَيْتَةً أُعْطِيَتْهَا مَوْلاَةٌ لِمَيْمُونَةَ مِنَ الصَّدَقَةِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ هَلاَّ انْتَفَعْتُمْ بِجِلْدِهَا قَالُوا إِنَّهَا مَيْتَةٌ فَقَالَ إِنَّمَا حَرُمَ أَكْلُهَا  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ happened to pass by a goat thrown (away) which had been in fact given to the freed slave-girl of Maimuna as charity. Upon this the Messenger of Allah (way peace he upon him) said: Why did they not get its skin? They had better tan it and make use of it.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَرَّ بِشَاةٍ مَطْرُوحَةٍ أُعْطِيَتْهَا مَوْلاَةٌ لِمَيْمُونَةَ مِنَ الصَّدَقَةِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَلاَّ أَخَذُوا إِهَابَهَا فَدَبَغُوهُ فَانْتَفَعُوا بِهِ  

the Prophet passed by a dead sheep that had been thrown aside. He said: "Who does this belong to?" They said: "Maimunah." He said: "Why did she not make use of its skin?" They said: "It is dead meat (i.e., it was not slaughtered properly)." He said: "Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, has only forbidden us to eat it."  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ مَرَّ عَلَى شَاةٍ مَيِّتَةٍ مُلْقَاةٍ فَقَالَ لِمَنْ هَذِهِ فَقَالُوا لِمَيْمُونَةَ فَقَالَ مَا عَلَيْهَا لَوِ انْتَفَعَتْ بِإِهَابِهَا قَالُوا إِنَّهَا مَيْتَةٌ فَقَالَ إِنَّمَا حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ ﷻ أَكْلَهَا  

"The Messenger of Allah passed by a dead sheep that he had given to a freed slave woman of Maimunah, the wife of the Prophet. He said: 'Why don't you make use of its hide?' They said: 'O Messenger of Allah, it is dead meat.' The Messenger of Allah said: 'It is only forbidden to eat it."  

مَرَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِشَاةٍ مَيِّتَةٍ كَانَ أَعْطَاهَا مَوْلاَةً لِمَيْمُونَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ هَلاَّ انْتَفَعْتُمْ بِجِلْدِهَا قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّهَا مَيْتَةٌ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِنَّمَا حُرِّمَ أَكْلُهَا  

"The Messenger of Allah saw a dead sheep that belonged to the freed slave woman of Maimunah, and had come from the Sadaqah." He said: "Why don't you take off its hide and make use of it?" They said: "It is dead meat." He said: "It is only unlawful to eat it."  

قَالَ أَبْصَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ شَاةً مَيِّتَةً لِمَوْلاَةٍ لِمَيْمُونَةَ وَكَانَتْ مِنَ الصَّدَقَةِ فَقَالَ لَوْ نَزَعُوا جِلْدَهَا فَانْتَفَعُوا بِهِ قَالُوا إِنَّهَا مَيْتَةٌ قَالَ إِنَّمَا حُرِّمَ أَكْلُهَا  

"The Prophet passed by a sheep belonging to Maimunah that had died and said: 'Why don't you take its skin and tan it and make use of it'?"

A sheep was given in alms to a female client of ours, but it died. The Prophet ﷺ passed it and said: Why did you not tan its skin and get some good out of it ? They replied: Messenger of Allah, it died a natural death. He said: It is only the eating of it that is prohibited.  

أُهْدِيَ لِمَوْلاَةٍ لَنَا شَاةٌ مِنَ الصَّدَقَةِ فَمَاتَتْ فَمَرَّ بِهَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقَالَ أَلاَ دَبَغْتُمْ إِهَابَهَا فَاسْتَمْتَعْتُمْ بِهِ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّهَا مَيْتَةٌ 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.”  

أَنَّ شَاةً لِمَوْلاَةِ مَيْمُونَةَ مَرَّ بِهَا يَعْنِي النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَدْ أُعْطِيَتْهَا مِنَ الصَّدَقَةِ مَيْتَةً فَقَالَ هَلاَّ أَخَذُوا إِهَابَهَا فَدَبَغُوهُ فَانْتَفَعُوا بِهِ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّهَا مَيْتَةٌ قَالَ إِنَّمَا حَرُمَ أَكْلُهَا  

Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab from Ubaydullah ibn Abdullah ibn Utba ibn Masud that Abdullah ibn Abbas said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by a dead sheep which had been given to a mawla of his wife, Maimuna. He said, ' Aren't you going to use its skin?' They said, 'Messenger of Allah, but it is carrion. 'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Only eating it is haram.' "  

أَنَّهُ قَالَ مَرَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِشَاةٍ مَيِّتَةٍ كَانَ أَعْطَاهَا مَوْلاَةً لِمَيْمُونَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ أَفَلاَ انْتَفَعْتُمْ بِجِلْدِهَا فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّهَا مَيْتَةٌ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِنَّمَا حُرِّمَ أَكْلُهَا

Abdullah said, "My father said that Sufyan mentioned it twice from Maymunah."  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ مَرَّ بِشَاةٍ لِمَوْلَاةٍ لِمَيْمُونَةَ مَيِّتَةٍ فَقَالَ أَلَا أَخَذُوا إِهَابَهَا فَدَبَغُوهُ فَانْتَفَعُوا بِهِ؟ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّهَا مَيْتَةٌ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّمَا حُرِّمَ أَكْلُهَا قَالَ سُفْيَانُ هَذِهِ الْكَلِمَةُ لَمْ أَسْمَعْهَا إِلَّا مِنَ الزُّهْرِيِّ حُرِّمَ أَكْلُهَا قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ قَالَ أَبِي قَالَ سُفْيَانُ مَرَّتَيْنِ عَنْ مَيْمُونَةَ
