أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ أَبِي رَبَاحٍ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ عَامَ الْفَتْحِ وَهُوَ بِمَكَّةَ «إِنَّ اللهَ وَرَسُولَهُ حَرَّمَ بَيْعَ الْخَمْرِ وَالْمَيْتَةِ وَالْخِنْزِيرِ وَالْأَصْنَامِ» فَقِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَرَأَيْتَ شُحُومَ الْمَيْتَةِ فَإِنَّهُ يُطْلَى بِهَا السُّفُنُ وَيُدَّهَنُ بِهَا الْجُلُودُ وَيَسْتَصْبِحُ بِهَا النَّاسُ فَقَالَ «لَا هُوَ حَرَامٌ» فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ «قَاتَلَ اللهُ الْيَهُودَ إِنَّ اللهَ لَمَّا حَرَّمَ عَلَيْهِمُ شُحُومَهَا أَجْمَلُوهُ ثُمَّ بَاعُوهُ فَأَكَلُوا ثَمَنَهُ»

✧ He heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say in the year of the conquest, while he was in Makkah: “Allah and His Messenger have forbidden the sale of wine, dead animals, pigs, and idols.” It was said, “O Messenger of Allah, what do you think of the fat of dead animals, for it is used to caulk ships, to grease hides, and people use it for lamps?” He said, “No, it is forbidden.” Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “May Allah fight the Jews; when Allah forbade them their fat, they rendered it and sold it, and consumed its price.”
