The Prophet ﷺ saw a dead sheep which had been given in charity to a freed slave-girl of Maimuna, the wife of the Prophet ﷺ . The Prophet ﷺ said, "Why don't you get the benefit of its hide?" They said, "It is dead." He replied, "Only to eat (its meat) is illegal."  

وَجَدَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ شَاةً مَيِّتَةً أُعْطِيَتْهَا مَوْلاَةٌ لِمَيْمُونَةَ مِنَ الصَّدَقَةِ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ هَلاَّ انْتَفَعْتُمْ بِجِلْدِهَا قَالُوا إِنَّهَا مَيْتَةٌ قَالَ إِنَّمَا حَرُمَ أَكْلُهَا  

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 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  

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  

“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.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3610)   

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ مَرَّ بِشَاةٍ مَيِّتَةٍ لِمَوْلَاةِ مَيْمُونَةَ فَقَالَ أَلَا أَخَذُوا إِهَابَهَا فَدَبَغُوهُ فَانْتَفَعُوا بِهِ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّهَا مَيْتَةٌ؟ قَالَ إِنَّمَا حُرِّمَ أَكْلُهَا
