Obey religious authority figures and follow instructions from them .

During a military campaign to Khaibar with the Prophet Muhammad, some of the people were starving and found domesticated donkeys. They slaughtered some of them for food. When the Prophet was informed about this he ordered 'Abdur-rahman bin 'Awf to announce that it was forbidden for those who believed in him as a messenger to consume donkey meat. This hadith teaches us that even in times of need we must still abide by Islamic laws and not take matters into our own hands without consulting religious authorities first. It also shows us how important it is to follow instructions from religious leaders and not do something just because we think it is right or necessary at that moment in time.
