Jami' at-Tirmidhi — Hadith #27455

Qutaibah narrated to us, Al-Layth narrated to us, on the authority of Yazid bin Abi Habib, on the authority of Ata’ bin Abi Rabah, on the authority of Jabir bin Abdullah, that he heard The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, in the year of the conquest, while he was in Mecca, said, “Indeed, God and His Messenger forbade the sale of wine, dead meat, pigs, and idols.” “So it was said, ‘O Messenger of God, have you seen the fat of a dead body? For ships are greased with it, hides are greased with it, and people use it in the morning.” He said. No, it is forbidden.” Then the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said at that time, “God has fought the Jews. God has forbidden fats from them.” So they beautified it, then sold it and consumed its price. He said, on the authority of Omar and Ibn Abbas. Abu Issa said, the hadith of Jabir is a good hadith. True. This is acted upon according to the people of knowledge.
