Prohibition of Wine, Dead Carcasses and Pork

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) prohibited the sale of wine, dead carcasses, pork and idols. He also prohibited the use of fat from dead carcasses for any purpose.

Narrated Jabir bin 'Abdullah : That during the Year of the Conquest, while he was in Makkah, he heard the Messenger of Allah saying: "Indeed Allah and His Messenger unlawful the sale of wine, dead carcasses, the pig, and idols". They said: "O Messenger of Allah! What about the fat of carcasses? For indeed it is used to coat the ships, skins are oiled with it, and people use it for lamps?" He said: "No. It is unlawful". Then, with that, the Messenger of Allah said: "May Allah fight (curse) the Jews! Indeed Allah made the fat unlawful for them, they melted it, sold it, and consumed its price". He said: There are narrations of this topic from 'Umar and Ibn 'Abbas. Abu 'Eisa said: The Hadith of Jabir is Hasan Sahih Hadith. This is acted upon according to the people of knowledge.
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ أَبِي رَبَاحٍ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ عَامَ الْفَتْحِ وَهُوَ بِمَكَّةَ يَقُولُ ‏"‏ إِنَّ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ حَرَّمَ بَيْعَ الْخَمْرِ وَالْمَيْتَةِ وَالْخِنْزِيرِ وَالأَصْنَامِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَقِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَرَأَيْتَ شُحُومَ الْمَيْتَةِ فَإِنَّهُ يُطْلَى بِهَا السُّفُنُ وَيُدْهَنُ بِهَا الْجُلُودُ وَيَسْتَصْبِحُ بِهَا النَّاسُ قَالَ ‏"‏ لاَ هُوَ حَرَامٌ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ ثُمَّ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ ‏"‏ قَاتَلَ اللَّهُ الْيَهُودَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ حَرَّمَ عَلَيْهِمُ الشُّحُومَ فَأَجْمَلُوهُ ثُمَّ بَاعُوهُ فَأَكَلُوا ثَمَنَهُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ عُمَرَ وَابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى حَدِيثُ جَابِرٍ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ ‏.‏ وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the prohibitions that were revealed to Prophet Muhammad by Allah. It is narrated by Jabir bin 'Abdullah who said that during the Year of Conquest he heard Prophet Muhammad say that Allah and His Messenger have made unlawful the sale of wine, dead carcasses, pork and idols. People asked what about fat from dead animals as it was used to coat ships or oil skins or used as lamps? To this question Prophet Muhammad replied in negative saying it is unlawful too. He then cursed Jews for melting fat from animals, selling it and consuming its price which was made unlawful for them by Allah. This hadith teaches us to stay away from things which are forbidden in Islam such as alcohol consumption or eating pork etc., even if they seem beneficial in some way because these things are not permissible according to Islamic teachings. We should also be careful while dealing with money earned through haram means like selling alcohol or pork etc., because this will lead us towards sinning against Allah's commands which should be avoided at all costs.
