Hadith 34551
Yahya related to me from Malik, from Hisham ibn Urwa, from his
father, that az-Zubayr ibn al-Awwam used to take dried gazelle meat
(safif adh-dhiba) as provisions while he was in ihram.
Malik
said, "Safif are dried strips of meat."
Muwatta Malik Book 20, Hadith 79

Yahya related to me from Malik, from Abu'n-Nadr, the mawla of
'Umar ibn 'Ubaydullah at-Taymi, from Nafi, the mawla of Abu Qatada al-
Ansari, that Abu Qatada was once with the Messenger of Allah, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace. When they got to one of the roads
to Makka he fell behind with some companions of his who were muhrim,
while he was not. Then he saw a wild ass, so he got on his mount and
asked his companions to give him his whip but they refused. Then he
asked them for his spear and they refused to give it to him. So he
took hold of it and attacked the ass and killed it. Some of the
companions of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, ate from it, and others refused. When they had caught up
with the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,
they asked him about it and he said, "It is food that Allah has fed
you with." Muwatta Malik Book 20, Hadith 78

Yahya related to me from Malik, from Zayd ibn Aslam, that Ata ibn
Yasar had told him, from Abu Qatada, the same hadith about the wild
ass as that of Abu'n-Nadr, except that in the hadith of Zayd ibn Aslam
the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said,
"Do you still have any of its meat?" Muwatta Malik Book 20, Hadith 80
