حَدَّثَنَا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ، عَنْ مُجَالِدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الْوَدَّاكِ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَنِ الْجَنِينِ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ كُلُوهُ إِنْ شِئْتُمْ ‏"‏ . وَقَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ قُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ نَنْحَرُ النَّاقَةَ وَنَذْبَحُ الْبَقَرَةَ وَالشَّاةَ فَنَجِدُ فِي بَطْنِهَا الْجَنِينَ أَنُلْقِيهِ أَمْ نَأْكُلُهُ قَالَ ‏"‏ كُلُوهُ إِنْ شِئْتُمْ فَإِنَّ ذَكَاتَهُ ذَكَاةُ أُمِّهِ ‏"‏ .

Musaddad's version says: we said: Messenger of Allah, we slaughter a she-camel, a cow and a sheep, and we find an embryo in its womb. Shall we throw it away or eat it?

বাংলা অনুবাদ
। আবূ সাঈদ (রাঃ) সূত্রে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, আমি রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম-কে যবাহকৃত পশুর পেটের বাচ্চা সম্পর্কে জিজ্ঞেস করলে তিনি বলেনঃ তোমাদের ইচ্ছে হলে তাও খেতে পারো। মুসাদ্দাদ (রহঃ)-এর বর্ণনায় রয়েছেঃ ‘আমরা বলি, হে আল্লাহ রাসূল! ‘আমরা উষ্ট্রী, গাভী ও বকরী যবাহ করার পর কখনো এর পেটে ভ্রূণ পেয়ে থাকি। ‘আমরা এ ভ্রূণ ফেলে দিবো নাকি খাবো? তিনি বললেনঃ ইচ্ছা হলে খেতে পারো। কেননা মাকে যবাহ করাই এর যবাহের অন্তর্ভুক্ত।
