Sorry to say but if he did 'not understood Ur quoted verse then he is helpless ,Why we must not Accept hadith It is very simple and straight Order from Allah But ONly FOR Believers u can check for him ..
Quran only, no Hadith http://muslimvilla.smfforfree.com/index.php?topic=4345.0·
Muhammad Sulaiman:- Is a Donkey "HALAL" to be eaten or "HARAM" to be refrained from eating. Its being "HARAM" is nowhere mentioned in the Quran. Then why it should not be eaten. Please comment. Your concerns that any Hadith contradicting the Quran is a fabrication and following Muhammad (PBUH) is following Quran merits all my consideration and there is no doubt in it. With this strong belief in mind please remember that Donkey was declared "Haram" by our Holy Prophet (PBUH) and not by Quran and hence we are fully convinced to admit that Quranic prohibition and prohibitions by our Holy Prophet both are mandatory upon us. Same is the case of Istikhara and there are many Ahadis Mubarka suggesting Istikhara before initiating any important matters.

www.islamawakened.comsurah Al Madidah 5:1
( Livestock animals are lawful as food) يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا أَوْفُوا بِالْعُقُودِ
أُحِلَّتْ لَكُم
بَهِيمَةُ الْأَنْعَامِ إِلَّا مَا يُتْلَىٰ عَلَيْكُمْ غَيْرَ مُحِلِّي الصَّيْدِ وَأَنتُمْ حُرُمٌ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَحْكُمُ مَا يُرِيدُ

uḥillat/ ohillat
Are made lawful
Pickthall :
O ye who believe! Fulfil your indentures. The beast of cattle is
made lawful unto you (for food) except that which is announced unto you (herein), game being unlawful when ye are on the pilgrimage. Lo! Allah ordaineth that which pleaseth Him
Abdel Haleem :
You who believe, fulfil your obligations.
Livestock animals are lawful as food for you, with the exception of what is about to be announced to you. You are forbidden to kill game while you are on pilgrimage––God commands what He will,
O you who have believed, fulfill [all] contracts. Lawful for you are the animals of grazing livestock except for that which is recited to you [in this Qur'an] - hunting not being permitted while you are in the state of ihram. Indeed, Allah ordains what He intends.
Animals are specificly mention For Travel and carry burden NOT FOR FOOD (6:142 , 16:8) وَمِنَ
الْأَنْعَامِ حَمُولَةً وَفَرْشًا كُلُوا مِمَّا رَزَقَكُمُ اللَّهُ وَلَا تَتَّبِعُوا خُطُوَاتِ الشَّيْطَانِ إِنَّهُ لَكُمْ عَدُوٌّ مُّبِينٌ

Pickthall
And of the cattle (He produceth)
some for burdens,
some for food. Eat of that which Allah hath bestowed upon you, and follow not the footsteps of the devil, for lo! he is an open foe to you.
Abdel Haleem
[He gave you] livestock, as beasts of
burden and as food. So eat what God has provided for you and do not follow in Satan’s footsteps: he is your sworn enemy.

Animals above have been mention FOR TRAVEL and Show BUT NOT AS FOOD,, And DONKEY / Gadha / گدھا is one of them and mentioned By Name for pulling loads. @ Note that camel is not in this list therefor camel can be eaten ...
NOW ask him !! Donkey was declared "Haram" by our Holy Prophet (PBUH) and not by Quran ??
