[Machine] "Maimuna, the wife of the Prophet ﷺ, narrated that he once passed by some men from the Quraysh dragging a sheep that looked like a donkey. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to them, 'If you would take its (dead) hide.' They replied, 'But it is dead!' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Water and dung purify it.' This is the wording of the hadith of Ibn Wahb, except that he said it was narrated by Umm Al-'Ala 63. Abu 'Ali Al-Rudbari informed us, Abu Bakr bin Dasa narrated to us, Abu Dawud narrated to us, Ahmad bin Salih narrated to us, Ibn Wahb reported to me, that 'Amr bin Al-Harith narrated to him, from Kathir bin Firqad, from Abdullah bin Malik bin Hudhafa, who narrated from his mother, Umm Al-'Ala bint Subay', that she said, 'I had some sheep at Uhud, and death struck among them. I went to Maimuna, the wife of the Prophet ﷺ, and mentioned that to her. She said to me, 'If you would take its hides and benefit from them.' I said, 'Is that permissible?' She said, 'Yes, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by some men (who did the same) and he mentioned what followed with the same ruling.'"

I had some sheep at Uhud, and they began to die. I then entered upon Maymunah, wife of the Prophet ﷺ, and mentioned it to her. Maymunah said to me: If you took their skins and made use of them, (that would be better for you). She asked: Is that lawful? She replied, Yes. Some people of the Quraysh passed by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ dragging a sheep of theirs as big as an ass. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to them: Would that you took its skin. They said: It died a natural death. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Water and leaves of the mimosa flava purify it.

أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ كَانَ لِي غَنَمٌ بِأُحُدٍ فَوَقَعَ فِيهَا الْمَوْتُ فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَى مَيْمُونَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لَهَا فَقَالَتْ لِي مَيْمُونَةُ لَوْ أَخَذْتِ جُلُودَهَا فَانْتَفَعْتِ بِهَا فَقَالَتْ أَوَيَحِلُّ ذَلِكَ قَالَتْ نَعَمْ مَرَّ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ رِجَالٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ يَجُرُّونَ شَاةً لَهُمْ مِثْلَ الْحِمَارِ فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَوْ أَخَذْتُمْ إِهَابَهَا قَالُوا إِنَّهَا مَيْتَةٌ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُطَهِّرُهَا الْمَاءُ وَالْقَرَظُ
