Sunan Abi Dawud 2819 (Book 16, Hadith 32) #23109
Eating Meat Slaughtered in Allah's Name

SUMMARY: Allah revealed a verse to the Prophet ﷺ forbidding the consumption of meat that has not been slaughtered in His name.

Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas: 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.
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 ﷺ فَقَالُوا نَأْكُلُ مِمَّا قَتَلْنَا وَلاَ نَأْكُلُ مِمَّا قَتَلَ اللَّهُ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ ‏{‏ وَلاَ تَأْكُلُوا مِمَّا لَمْ يُذْكَرِ اسْمُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ ‏}‏ إِلَى آخِرِ الآيَةِ

QUICK LESSONS:
Respect and follow Islamic laws when it comes to food and other matters related to our daily lives

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about a conversation between the Prophet and some Jews. The Jews asked why they were allowed to eat meat that they killed, but not meat that was killed by Allah. In response, Allah revealed a verse which prohibited them from eating any meat on which His name had not been pronounced. This means that all animals must be slaughtered according to Islamic law before their meat can be consumed. This teaches us to respect and follow Islamic laws when it comes to food and other matters related to our daily lives. We should also remember that everything we consume should be done with respect for God's laws and teachings.
