بَابُ مَا جَاءَ فِي أَكْلِ الضَّبِّWhat is Reported Regarding Eating Lizard
Hadith 1767
وَحَدَّثَنِي مَالِك، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ ، أَنَّ رَجُلًا نَادَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، مَا تَرَى فِي الضَّبِّ ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " لَسْتُ بِآكِلِهِ وَلَا بِمُحَرِّمِهِ "
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that a man called out and said: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)! What do you say about the meat of the lizard (dabb)? The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "I neither eat it nor declare it unlawful."
