Al-Matalib al-'Aliyah 2323 — The lawfulness of animals

وَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ : حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحِيمِ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي زِيَادٍ ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ الْأَصَمِّ ، عَنْ مَيْمُونَةَ وَهِيَ خَالَتُهُ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَتْ : أُهْدِيَ لَنَا ضَبٌّ فَصَنَعْتُهُ ، فَدَخَلَ عَلَيْهَا رَجُلَانِ مِنْ قَوْمِهَا فَأَتْحَفَتْهُمَا بِهِ ، فَدَخَلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُمَا يَأْكُلَانِ ، فَوَضَعَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَدَهُ ثُمَّ رَفَعَهَا ، فَقَالَ : مَا هَذَا ؟ قَالَتْ : ضَبٌّ أُهْدِيَ لِي فَصَنَعْتُهُ ، فَطَرَحَهُ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَذَهَبَا لِيَطْرَحَا مَا فِي أَيْدِيهِمَا ، فَقَالَ لَهُمَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : كُلَا فَإِنَّكُمَا أَهْلَ نَجْدٍ تَأْكُلُونَهَا ، وَإِنَّا أَهْلَ تِهَامَةَ نَعَافُهَا .
It is narrated from Sayyidah Maymunah (may Allah be pleased with her), who was the maternal aunt of Yazid bin al-Asamm, that she said: "A lizard (dabb) was given to us as a gift, so I cooked it. Then two men of my people came to me, and I served it (the cooked lizard) to them. Meanwhile the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came in while the two of them were eating it. He (peace and blessings be upon him) reached out his hand (towards the food) and then withdrew it, and asked: 'What is this?' I said: 'It is a lizard that was given to me as a gift, so I cooked it.' So he (peace and blessings be upon him) set it aside (and did not eat). Seeing this, the two (guests) also began to throw away the morsels that were in their hands. At that, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to the two of them: 'Eat! For you are people of Najd (and) you eat it, whereas we, the people of Tihamah, find it distasteful.'"
