He informed him that a Jariya of theirs was tending sheep at Sala when she noticed that one of the sheep was dying. She broke a stone and slaughtered it with it. He said to his family, "Do not eat from it until I come to the Prophet ﷺ and ask him, or until I send someone to ask him." So he came to the Prophet ﷺ, or sent someone to him, and the Prophet ﷺ ordered that it be eaten.
حدثنا محمد بن أبي بكر المقدمي حدثنا معتمر عن عبيد الله عن نافع سمع ابن كعب بن مالك يخبر
أخبره أن جارية لهم كانت ترعى غنما بسلع فأبصرت بشاة من غنمها موتا فكسرت حجرا فذبحتها فقال لأهله لا تأكلوا حتى آتي النبي ﷺ فأسأله أو حتى أرسل إليه من يسأله فأتى النبي ﷺ أو بعث إليه فأمر النبي ﷺ بأكلها
Bukhari narrated the hadith of Ubaydullah, from Nafi, from Ibn Kaab, from his father, that a slave girl belonging to Kaab...And from Malik, from Nafi, from a man among the Ansar, from Muaz bin Saad or Saad bin Muaz, that a slave girl belonging to Kaab...And from Musa, from Juwayriya, from Nafi, from a man among Banu Salama who informed Abdullah, that a slave girl belonging to Kaab...Layth said, from Nafi, that he heard a man from the Ansar inform Abdullah that a slave girl belonging to Kaab... This is a clear discrepancy, and he narrated it nonetheless.He said, This has been disputed with regard to Nafi and with regard to his companions who transmitted from him. It has been disputed with regard to Ubaydullah, Yahya bin Saeed, Ayub, Qatada, Musa bin Uqba, Ismail bin Umaya, and others besides them, so it was said, from Nafi, from Ibn Umar, but this is not sahih.The disagreement over it is extensive.
Al-Hafiz said in the introduction of Fath al-Bari, page 376, after mentioning Daraqutni's statement, "I say, it is as he said, and its defect is apparent, and answering it involves forced interpretation and strained reasoning." End quote.
