Hadith 3999

Al-Irbad ibn Sariyah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that on the day of Khaybar, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) forbade every fanged predator, ¹ every clawed bird, the meat of domestic donkeys, the “mujaththamah,” the “khalisah,” and approaching pregnant women until they give birth. Muhammad ibn Yahya said: Abu Asim was asked about the “mujaththamah,” and he said: It is when a bird or thing is set up and shot at. He was asked about the “khalisah,” and he said: It is when a wolf or predator catches it, a man takes it, and it dies in his hand before slaughter. [Narrated by al-Tirmidhi] Some of our scholars said: If a person acquires a pregnant slave girl, it is not permissible to approach her until she gives birth, and similarly for a woman pregnant from fornication.
