14. Ceremonial for Newborn Animals
١٤۔ كِتَابُ الْفَرَعِ وَالْعَتِيرَةِ
some men of Quraish passed by the Messenger of Allah dragging a sheep the size of a donkey. He said to them: "Why don't you take its skin?" They said: "It is dead meat." The Messenger of Allah said: "Purify it with water and Qaraz." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 4248)
أَنَّ مَيْمُونَةَ زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ حَدَّثَتْهَا أَنَّهُ مَرَّ بِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ رِجَالٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ يَجُرُّونَ شَاةً لَهُمْ مِثْلَ الْحِمَارِ فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَوْ أَخَذْتُمْ إِهَابَهَا؟» فَقَالُوا إِنَّهَا مَيْتَةٌ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «يُطَهِّرُهَا الْمَاءُ وَالْقَرَظُ»
