[Machine] "He ﷺ visited the Prophet and presented him with salted meat. When he turned away, a man said, 'O Messenger of Allah, do you know what you have been given? You have been given the salted water.' He then returned it and asked, 'What is commonly protected from flies?' The Prophet replied, 'Anything that has not been touched by the limbs of a camel.'"

Abyad went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and asked him for assigning him (the mines of) salt as fief. (The narrator Ibn al-Mutawakkil said: which was in Ma'arib.) So he assigned it to him as a fief. When he returned, a man in the meeting asked: Do you know what you have assigned him as a fief? You have assigned him the perennial spring water. So he took it back from him. He asked him about protecting land which had arak trees growing in it. He replied: He could have such as was beyond the region where the hoofs (of camels) went. The narrator Ibn al-Mutwakkil said: "that is the camel hoofs."

[Machine] He sent a delegation to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , so he asked for permission to enter, and he granted him permission. When he turned to leave, a man said, "O Messenger of Allah, do you know what he asked for?" He only asked for a handful of salt." He returned and said, "I asked him about what is to be protected from the land mines," and he said, "As long as you have not reached the corners of the camels."

[Machine] He came to the Prophet ﷺ seeking his permission to use salt. The Prophet gave him permission, so he took some salt. Then a man said to him, "O Messenger of Allah, do you know what he cut from it? It is the water that remains after the process of boiling it until it evaporates. So he returned it to him and asked him what is protected from the flies. The Prophet said, "As long as it has not reached the width of camel's hooves."

[Machine] "He (someone) visited the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and asked him for some salt from Ma'rib, so he granted it to him. A man asked, 'Do you know, O Messenger of Allah, what you have granted to him?' He replied, 'I have granted him flowing water.' So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ withdrew it from me. I then asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , 'What is protected from the punishment of the hellfire?' He replied, 'What has not been touched by the hooves of camels.'"
