It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) passed by a dead goat. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Why did you not benefit from its skin?" The people said: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! It is dead. He said: "Its eating is forbidden (but its skin can be purified by tanning)."
