Hadith text

Narrated Ibn Abi `Aufa:We were afflicted with hunger during the besiege of Khaibar, and when it was the day of (the battle of) Khaibar, we slaughtered the donkeys and when the pots got boiling (with their meat). Allah's Apostle made an announcement that all the pots should be upset and that nobody should eat anything of the meat of the donkeys. We thought that the Prophet (ﷺ) prohibited that because the Khumus had not been taken out of the booty (i.e. donkeys); other people said, "He prohibited eating them for ever." The sub-narrator added, "I asked Sa`id bin Jubair who said, 'He has made the eating of donkeys' meat illegal for ever

Ibn Abi Aufa bataate hain: Khaibar ke gherav ke dauran humein bhookh ne pareshaan kiya, aur jab Khaibar ki jung ka din aaya, humne gadhon ko zabah kiya, aur jab handiyaan ubalne lagi (unke gosht se), Allah ke Rasool ne elaan kiya ke sab handiyaan ulat di jaaen aur koi bhi gadhe ka gosht na khaaye. Humne socha ke Nabi ne isliye mana kiya kyunke maal-e-ghanimat (yaani gadhon) se Khumus nahi liya gaya tha; doosre logon ne kaha, "Unhone hamesha ke liye unhe khaane se mana kiya." Raawi ne joda, "Maine Sa'id bin Jubair se pucha jinhone kaha, 'Unhone gadhon ka gosht khaane ko hamesha ke liye haram kar diya.'"
