may Allah bless him and grant him peace, because if they did not dislike it, they would become accustomed to standing for one another, and this would lead them to love it—a cause for which they would deserve the Fire, as stated in the preceding hadith. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, however, was protected from loving such an act of disobedience. Thus, if he nevertheless disliked people standing for him, it is clear that the Muslim has even greater reason to dislike it.

359 — “On the day of Khaybar, the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, forbade the meat of domestic donkeys and permitted the meat of horses.”

It is narrated from Jabir ibn Abdullah. It has several routes from him:

The first: through Muhammad ibn Ali, from him.

It was reported by al-Bukhari (4/16), Muslim (6/66), Abu Dawud (3788), al-Nasa’i (2/199), al-Tirmidhi (1/331), al-Darimi (2/87), al-Tahawi (2/318), al-Bayhaqi (9/325), and Ahmad (3/361, 385), through various chains from Hammad ibn Zayd, from Amr ibn Dinar, from Muhammad ibn Ali, from Jabir, with this wording.

Sufyan ibn Uyaynah also narrated it from Amr ibn Dinar, from Jabir, omitting Muhammad ibn Ali from the chain of transmission. Its wording is:

“The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, fed us horse meat and forbade us donkey meat.”

It was reported by al-Nasa’i, al-Tahawi, and al-Tirmidhi (1/331), who said:

“This hadith is good and authentic. More than one narrator likewise reported it from Amr ibn Dinar, from Jabir; while Hammad ibn Zayd reported it from Amr ibn Dinar, from Muhammad ibn Ali, from Jabir. Ibn Uyaynah’s narration is more sound. I heard Muhammad say: ‘Sufyan ibn Uyaynah had a stronger memory than Hammad ibn Zayd.’”
