Sacrifice (Kitab Al-Dahaya)
حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عِمْرَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ جَاءَتِ الْيَهُودُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالُوا نَأْكُلُ مِمَّا قَتَلْنَا وَلاَ نَأْكُلُ مِمَّا قَتَلَ اللَّهُ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ { وَلاَ تَأْكُلُوا مِمَّا لَمْ يُذْكَرِ اسْمُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ } إِلَى آخِرِ الآيَةِ .
The Jews came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said: We eat which we kill but we do not eat which Allah kills? So Allah revealed: "Eat not of (meats) on which Allah's name hath not been pronounced." to the end of the verse.
