Majma al-Zawaid 6061 — Reports on the lizard (dabb)

وَعَنْ عَائِشَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - أُهْدِيَ إِلَيْهِ ضَبٌّ فَلَمْ يَأْكُلْهُ فَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ : فَقُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، أَلَا تُطْعِمُهُ الْمَسَاكِينَ ؟ فَقَالَ : " لَا تُطْعِمُوهُمْ مِمَّا لَا تَأْكُلُونَ " .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَأَبُو يَعْلَى ، وَرِجَالُهُمَا رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ .
Sayyidah Aishah al-Siddiqah (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates: A lizard was presented as a gift to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), but he did not eat it. Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates: I said to him: "O Messenger of Allah, should we not feed it to the poor?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Do not feed them what you yourselves do not eat."
Ahmad and Abu Ya'la recorded it, and the narrators of both are the narrators of the Sahih.
