Explanation

In this Hadīth, Ka‘b ibn Mālik (may Allah be pleased with him) tells that a woman slaughtered a sheep with a stone. This woman was grazing some sheep near Mount Uhud and a wolf attacked one of her sheep without killing it. She chased the wolf away, took a sharp stone and slaughtered the sheep with it.
