عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي عَمَّارٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ جَابِرًا رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ فَقُلْتُ الضَّبُعُ آكُلُهَا قَالَ نَعَمْ قُلْتُ أَصَيْدٌ هِيَ قَالَ نَعَمْ قُلْتُ أَسَمِعْتَ ذَاكَ مِنْ نَبِيِّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ نَعَمْ
It is narrated from Abdur Rahman bin Abdullah, he says: I asked Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him): Can I eat the meat of a badger? He said: Yes. I asked: Is it considered game? He said: Yes. I asked: Did you hear this from the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)? He said: Yes.
