[Machine] We had a sheep that died, so we threw it away. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came and asked, "What did you do with your sheep?" We said, "It died, so we threw it away." He said, "Couldn't you have benefited from its skin?" I said, "But it's dead." He recited this verse, "Say, 'I do not find within that which was revealed to me [anything] forbidden to one who would eat it unless it be a dead animal.'" He then said, "The only thing forbidden to you is to eat the carrion." So they sent for its skin and tanned it until they had a good piece with them.
كَانَتْ لَنَا شَاةٌ فَمَاتَتْ فَرَمَيْنَا بِهَا فَجَاءَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ «مَا فَعَلَتْ شَاتُكُمْ؟» قُلْنَا مَاتَتْ فَطَرَحْنَاهَا فَقَالَ «أَفَلَا انْتَفَعْتُمْ بِإِهَابِهَا؟» فَقُلْتُ هِيَ مَيْتَةٌ فَقَرَأَ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ {قُلْ لَا أَجِدُ فِيمَا أُوحِيَ إِلَيَّ مُحَرَّمًا عَلَى طَاعِمٍ يَطْعَمُهُ إِلَّا أَنْ تَكُونَ مَيْتَةً} «إِنَّمَا حَرَّمَ عَلَيْكُمْ أَنْ تَطْعَمُوهَا» فَأَرْسَلُوا بِإِهَابِهَا فَدَبَغُوهُ فَاتَّخَذُوهُ حَتَّى كَانَ عِنْدَهُمْ شَنًّا
