سنن نسائی · Hadith 4359
It was narrated that ‘Umair bin Salamah Ad-Damri said: “While we were traveling with the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم in part of AthayaAr-Rawha’, and they were in Thram, we saw a wounded onager. The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم said: ‘Leave it, for soon the one who wounded it will come.’ Then a man from Bahz came, and he was the one who had wounded the onager. He said: ‘Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم, it is up to you what you do with this onager.’ The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم ordered Abu Bakr to distribute it among the people.” (Sahih).
