بَابُ مَا جَاءَ فِي أَكْلِ الضَّبِّWhat is Reported Regarding Eating Lizard
Hadith 1766
وَحَدَّثَنِي مَالِك، عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ بْنِ سَهْلِ بْنِ حُنَيْفٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ ، أَنَّهُ دَخَلَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَيْتَ مَيْمُونَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَأُتِيَ بِضَبٍّ مَحْنُوذٍ فَأَهْوَى إِلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِيَدِهِ، فَقَالَ بَعْضُ النِّسْوَةِ اللَّاتِي فِي بَيْتِ مَيْمُونَةَ : أَخْبِرُوا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِمَا يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَأْكُلَ مِنْهُ، فَقِيلَ : هُوَ ضَبٌّ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، فَرَفَعَ يَدَهُ، فَقُلْتُ : أَحَرَامٌ هُوَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ؟ فَقَالَ : " لَا، وَلَكِنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ بِأَرْضِ قَوْمِي فَأَجِدُنِي أَعَافُهُ "، قَالَ خَالِدٌ : فَاجْتَرَرْتُهُ فَأَكَلْتُهُ، وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَنْظُرُ
Sayyiduna Khalid bin Walid bin Mughira (may Allah be pleased with him) went with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) to the house of Umm al-Mu’minin Sayyida Maymunah (may Allah be pleased with her), where a roasted lizard (dabb) was brought. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) reached out his hand to eat it. The women said: Inform the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) about whose meat this is. The people said: O Messenger of Allah! This is the meat of a lizard (dabb). He (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) withdrew his hand. I said: Is it forbidden, O Messenger of Allah? He (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “No, but it is not found in my land, so I feel a dislike for eating it.” Sayyiduna Khalid (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I pulled it towards myself and ate it while the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was watching.
