قَرَأْتُ عَلَى عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ مَهْدِيٍّ مَالِكٌ عَنْ أَبِي النَّضْرِ مَوْلَى عُمَرَ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ عَنْ نَافِعٍ مَوْلَى أَبِي قَتَادَةَ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ
أَنَّهُ كَانَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ بِبَعْضِ طَرِيقِ مَكَّةَ تَخَلَّفَ مَعَ أَصْحَابٍ لَهُ مُحْرِمِينَ وَهُوَ غَيْرُ مُحْرِمٍ، فَرَأَى حِمَارًا وَحْشِيًّا، فَاسْتَوَى عَلَى فَرَسِهِ، وَسَأَلَ أَصْحَابَهُ أَنْ يُنَاوِلُوهُ سَوْطَهُ فَأَبَوْا، فَسَأَلَهُمْ رُمْحَهُ فَأَبَوْا، وَأَخَذَهُ ثُمَّ شَدَّ عَلَى الْحِمَارِ فَقَتَلَهُ، فَأَكَلَ [مِنْهُ] بَعْضُ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ، وَأَبَى بَعْضُهُمْ، فَلَمَّا أَدْرَكُوا رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ سَأَلُوهُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ، فَقَالَ: إِنَّمَا هِيَ طُعْمَةٌ أَطْعَمَكُمُوهَا اللهُ [عَزَّ وَجَلَّ]

✧ He was with the Messenger of God ﷺ until when he was on part of the road to Makkah, he lagged behind with companions of his who were in ihram while he was not in ihram. He saw a wild donkey, mounted his horse, and asked his companions to hand him his whip, but they refused. He asked them for his spear, but they refused. He took it, then charged at the donkey and killed it. Some of the companions of the Prophet ﷺ ate from it, and some refused. When they caught up with the Messenger of God ﷺ, they asked him about that. He said: "It is only a provision that God [Mighty and Majestic] has fed you."
