حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَانُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ قَالَ: نَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ الْعُقَيْلِيُّ قَالَ: نَا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنْ عِيَاضِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ قَالَ:
بَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَبَا قَتَادَةَ الْأَنْصَارِيَّ عَلَى الصَّدَقَةِ، وَخَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَصْحَابُهُ مُحْرِمُونَ حَتَّى نَزَلُوا عُسْفَانَ، فَإِذَا هُمْ بِحِمَارٍ وَحْشِيٍّ، وَجَاءَ أَبُو قَتَادَةَ، وَهُوَ حِلٌّ، فَنَكَّسُوا رُءُوسَهُمْ كَرَاهِيَةَ أَنْ يُحِدُّوا أَبْصَارَهُمْ فَيَفْطُنَ، فَرَآهُ فَرَكِبَ فَرَسَهُ، وَأَخَذَ الرُّمْحَ فَسَقَطَ مِنْهُ، فَقَالَ: نَاوِلُونِيهِ، فَقُلْنَا: مَا نَحْنُ بِمُعِينُوكَ عَلَيْهِ بِشَيْءٍ، فَحَمَلَ عَلَيْهِ فَعَقَرَهُ قَالَ: ثُمَّ جَعَلُوا يَشْوُونَ مِنْهُ، ثُمَّ قَالُوا: رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بَيْنَ أَظْهُرِنَا، وَكَانَ تَقَدَّمَهُمْ فَلَحِقُوهُ، فَسَأَلُوهُ فَلَمْ يَرَ بِهِ بَأْسًا

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent Abu Qatada al-Ansari to collect zakat, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and his companions set out in ihram until they camped at Usfan. There they saw a wild donkey. Abu Qatada came while he was not in ihram. They lowered their heads, disliking to direct their eyes lest he notice. He saw it, mounted his horse, and took the spear, but it fell from him. He said: "Hand it to me." We said: "We will not help you with it in any way." He charged at it and wounded it. Then they began roasting from it. Then they said: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ is among us." He had gone ahead of them, so they caught up with him and asked him, and he saw no harm in it.
