Chapter 25 Mention Of An Animal That Fell Into A Well And Its Throat Cannot Be Reached
باب ذِكْرِ الْمُتَرَدِّيَةِ فِي الْبِئْرِ الَّتِي لاَ يُوصَلُ إِلَى حَلْقِهَا
It was narrated from Abu Ushara' that his father said: "I said: "O Messenger of Allah, is slaughtering only in the throat or upper chest?" He said: 'If you stab it in the thigh, that will suffice,"'(Daif)
أَخْبَرَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الْعُشَرَاءِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَمَا تَكُونُ الذَّكَاةُ إِلاَّ فِي الْحَلْقِ وَاللَّبَّةِ قَالَ " لَوْ طَعَنْتَ فِي فَخِذِهَا لأَجْزَأَكَ " .
