It was narrated that ‘Abdullah bin Abi Qatadah said:
“My father set out with the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم in the year of Al-Hudaybiyah, and his companions entered Ihram, but he did not. (He said:) ‘While I was with my companions, some of them laughed at others. I looked and saw an onager. I stabbed it then asked them to help, but they refused to help me. We ate from its meat, and we were afraid that we would be intercepted (by the enemy) so I followed the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم
sometimes making my horse gallop and sometimes traveling at a regular pace. I met a man from Ghifar at midnight and said: Where did you leave the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم ? He said: I left him when he was napping in As-Suqya. I caught up with him and said: Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم! Your Companions convey their greetings of Salam to you, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings. They were afraid that they may be intercepted and cut off from you, so wait for them. Then I said: Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم, I caught an onager and I have some of it. He said to the people: Eat, and they were in Ihram.” (Sahih)
