Then I brought it to my companions. Some of them said: Eat it, while others said: Do not eat it. The Prophet of Allaah (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) was in front of us.

The Messenger of Allaah (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) went forward. He (Abu Qatada) said: Meanwhile I was along with his Companions, some of them smiled (to one another) As I cast a glance I saw a wild ass. I attacked It with a spear and held it, and begged for their (i. e. of his companions) assistance, but they refused to help me and we ate its meat. But we were afraid lest we should be separated (from the Messenger of Allaah). So I proceeded on (with a view to) seeking the Messenger of Allaah (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam). Some- times I'dashed my horse and sometimes I made it run at a leisurely pace (keeping pace with others). (In the meanwhile) I met a person from Banfu Ghifar in the middle of the night. I said to him: Where did you meet the messenger of Allaah (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam)? He said: I left him at Ta'bin and he intended to halt at Suqya to spend the afternoon. I met him and said: Messenger of Allaah. your Companions convey salutations and benedictions of Allaah to you and they fear that they may not be separated from you (and the enemy may do harm to you), so wait for them, and he (the Prophet) waited for them. I said: Messenger of Allaah, I killed a game and there is left with me (some of the meat). The Prophet of Allaah (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) said to his people: Eat it. And they were in the state of Ihram.
