اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنِي سِمَاكُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ حَدَّثَنِي قَبِيصَةُ بْنُ هُلْبٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ وَسَأَلَهُ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ إِنَّ مِنَ الطَّعَامِ طَعَامًا أَتَحَرَّجُ مِنْهُ (وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ طَعَامِ النَّصَارَى فَقَالَ لَا يَخْتَلِجَنَّ فِي صَدْرِكَ طَعَامٌ ضَارَعْتَ فِيهِ النَّصْرَانِيَّةَ)
Sayyiduna Hilb Tai (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that I heard from the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and a man had asked him: “There is a food from which I feel tightness in my heart.” In another narration, it is mentioned: He said, “I asked you about the food of the Christians.” So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “There should be no doubt in your chest about such food in which there is resemblance to Christianity.”
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … The meaning of the last sentence is that those things which are lawful (halal) in the light of the Shari‘ah should not be abandoned on account of any misgivings or doubts, because doing so was the practice of the Christians.
