Hadith 8765

حَدَّثَنَا مُؤَمَّلُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ سَلَمَةَ ، قالَ : حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْمُهَزِّمِ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَة ، يَقُولُ : كُنَّا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي حَجٍّ أَوْ عُمْرَةٍ ، فَاسْتَقْبَلَنَا رِجْلٌ مِنْ جَرَادٍ ، فَجَعَلْنَا نَضْرِبُهُنَّ بِعِصِيِّنَا وَسِيَاطِنَا ، فَسُقِطَ فِي أَيْدِينَا وَقُلْنَا : مَا صَنَعْنَا وَنَحْنُ مُحْرِمُونَ ! فَسَأَلْنَا النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ ذَلِكَ ، فَقَالَ : " لَا بَأْسَ بِصَيْدِ الْبَحْرِ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that once we were with the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) on the occasion of Hajj or Umrah when, on the way, we saw a swarm of locusts. We started hitting them with our whips and sticks, and they began to fall one by one in front of us. We thought, since we are in the state of Ihram, what should we do about them? Then we asked the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), and he said: "There is no harm in hunting from the sea."
