Narrated Ibn Shihab: Jabir Ibn Abdullah used to say that a Jewess from the inhabitants of Khaybar poisoned a roasted sheep and presented it to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ who took its foreleg and ate from it. A group of his companions also ate with him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then said: Take your hands away from the food. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then sent someone to the Jewess and he called her. He said to her: Have you poisoned this sheep? The Jewess replied: Who has informed you? He said: This foreleg which I have in my hand has informed me. She said: Yes. He said: What did you intend by it? She said: I thought if you were a prophet; it would not harm you; if you were not a prophet; we should rid ourselves of him i.e. the Prophet. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then forgave her; and did not punish her. But some of his companions who ate it; died. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ had himself cupped on his shoulder on account of that which he had eaten from the sheep. Abu Hind cupped him with the horn and knife. He was a client of Banu Bayadah from the Ansar.
