"While we were traveling with the Prophet in part of Athaya Ar-Rawha and they were in Ihram, we saw a wounded onager, the Messenger of Allah 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: 'O Messenger of Allah, it is up to you what you do with this onager,' The Messenger of Allah ordered Abu Bakr to distribute it among the people."

he caught an onager and brought it to his companion's who were in Ihram whereas he was not, and they ate from it. Then they said to one another: "Let us ask the Messenger of Allah about it," So we asked him and he said:" You did well" Then he said to us: "Do you have anything left of it?" We said: "Yes." He said: "Give us some "So we brought him some, and he ate from it, while he was in Ihram.
