اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَعْشَرٍ ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا ، قَالَتْ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " لَا تَقْطَعُوا اللَّحْمَ بِالسِّكِّينِ فَإِنَّهُ مِنْ صَنِيعِ الْأَعَاجِمِ ، وَانْهَسُوهُ فَإِنَّهُ أَهْنَأُ وَأَمْرَأُ " ، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد : وَلَيْسَ هُوَ بِالْقَوِيِّ .
Narrated Aishah, Ummul Muminin: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Do not eat meat with a knife, for it is a foreign practice, but bite it, for it is more beneficial and wholesome. Abu Dawud said: This tradition is not strong.
