Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كَامِلٍ حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ عَنْ سِمَاكٍ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ أَنَّ أَهْلَ بَيْتٍ كَانُوا بِالْحَرَّةِ مُحْتَاجِينَ قَالَ فَمَاتَتْ عِنْدَهُمْ نَاقَةٌ لَهُمْ أَوْ لِغَيْرِهِمْ فَرَخَّصَ لَهُمْ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي أَكْلِهَا قَالَ فَعَصَمَتْهُمْ بَقِيَّةَ شِتَائِهِمْ أَوْ سَنَتِهِمْ.
English Translation
Jabir ibn Samurah narrated that a household at al-Harrah was in need, and a she-camel of theirs - or someone else's - died. The Prophet (peace be upon him) permitted them to eat it, and it sustained them for the rest of their winter - or their year.
