Sahl bin 'Amr known as Ibn Al-Hanzaliyyah reported: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) happened to pass by a camel whose belly was sticking to its back (because of hunger), whereupon he said, "Fear Allah in respect of these dumb (animals). Ride them while they are fit, and slaughter them and eat their meat when they are fit." [Abu Dawud] .
