When Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) returned from Bahrain and reached Rabdha, he met some riders from Iraq who were in the state of Ihram. They asked Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) about the ruling on the meat of game that was with the people of Rabdha. Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) permitted them to eat it. Then he said that he became doubtful about this ruling, so when he came to Madinah, he mentioned it to Umar ibn al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him). Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) asked: What ruling did you give them? I said: I permitted them to eat it. Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: If you had given them any other ruling, I would have done such and such to you, meaning he began to warn him.
