Chapter 31 · The Chapter on Slaughteringحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ الطَّنَافِسِيُّ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ مَسْرُوقٍ، عَنْ عَبَايَةَ بْنِ رِفَاعَةَ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ رَافِعِ بْنِ خَدِيجٍ، قَالَ: كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي سَفَرٍ، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنَّا نَكُونُ فِي الْمَغَازِي فَلَا يَكُونُ مَعَنَا مُدًى، فَقَالَ: مَا أَنْهَرَ الدَّمَ وَذُكِرَ اسْمُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ، فَكُلْ غَيْرَ السِّنِّ وَالظُّفْرِ، فَإِنَّ السِّنَّ عَظْمٌ، وَالظُّفْرَ مُدَى الْحَبَشَةِ .

It was narrated that Rafi’ bin Khadij said: “We were with the Prophet (ﷺ) on a journey, and I said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, we are (sometimes) on military campaigns, and we have no knife with us.’ He said: ‘(Use) whatever causes the blood to flow, mention the Name of Allah and eat, but (do not use) teeth or nails, for the tooth is a bone and the nail is the knife of the Ethiopians.”
