حَدَّثَنَا
بَهْزٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا
شُعْبَةُ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنِي
عَدِيُّ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ
زَيْدَ بْنَ وَهْبٍ يُحَدِّثُ ، عَنْ
ثَابِتِ بْنِ وَدِيعَةَ ، قَالَ : جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِضِبَابٍ قَدْ احْتَرَشَهَا ، قَالَ فَجَعَلَ يَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ وَيُقَلِّبُهُ ، وَقَالَ :
" إِنَّ أُمَّةً مُسِخَتْ ، فَلَا يُدْرَى مَا فَعَلَتْ ، وَإِنِّي لَا أَدْرِي لَعَلَّ هَذَا مِنْهَا " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man brought several hunted lizards to the service of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) turned one of the lizards over and said: "The forms of some communities were transformed; I do not know, perhaps this is one of them."
