حَدَّثنا عَبد الله بن سَعِيد قَال حَدَّثنا حفص يعني ابن غياث قَال حَدَّثنا حَجَّاجٍ عَن عَطاء عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِي اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيه وَسَلَّم أَبْصَرَ شَاةً مَيِّتَةً شَاغِرَةً بِرِجْلَيْهَا فَقَالَ مَا ضَرَّ أَهْلَ هَذِهِ لَوِ انْتَفَعُوا بِإِهَابِهَا فَدَبَغَتْهُ سَوْدَةُ وَانْتَبَذَتْ فِيهِ اللَّهُ عَلَيه وَسَلَّم أَبْصَرَ شَاةً مَيِّتَةً شَاغِرَةً بِرِجْلَيْهَا فَقَالَ مَا ضَرَّ أَهْلَ هَذِهِ لَوِ انْتَفَعُوا بِإِهَابِهَا فَدَبَغَتْهُ سَوْدَةُ وَانْتَبَذَتْ فِيهِ

Amr ibn Ali narrated to us, he said: Abu Dawud narrated to us, he said: Abu Awanah narrated to us, from Simak ibn Harb, from Ikrimah, from Ibn Abbas (may Allah be well pleased with them both), who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: «Shall I not inform you of the best of the people? A man who takes the reins of his horse in the cause of Allah. And the worst of the people? A man who is asked by the Name of Allah and does not give.»
