1272 صحيح حديث ابْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: كَانَ نَاسٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فِيهمْ سَعْدٌ، فَذَهَبُوا يَأْكُلُونَ مِنْ لَحْمٍ، فَنَادَتْهُمُ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ بَعْضِ أَزْوَاجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، إِنَّهُ لَحْمُ ضَبٍّ، فَأَمْسَكُوا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : كُلُوا أَوِ اطْعَمُوا، فَإِنَّهُ حَلاَلٌ أَوْ قَالَ: لاَ بَأْسَ بِهِ وَلكِنَّهُ لَيْسَ مِنْ طَعَامِي
Hazrat Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) narrates that among the companions of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), several companions including Sa’d (may Allah be pleased with him) were sitting at the dining spread. When people reached out their hands to eat the meat, one of the pure wives, Ummul Momineen Maimunah (may Allah be pleased with her), informed them that it was the meat of a lizard. Everyone refrained from eating. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Eat (he said "kulu" or "at'imu"), for it is lawful, or he said: There is no harm in eating this, but this animal is not my food.
