Abdur Rahman bin Abdullah bin Abi Ammar narrates that I met Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both), so I asked him, "Can we eat the badger?" He replied, "Yes." I asked, "Is it a game animal?" He answered, "Yes." I then asked, "Did you hear this from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)?" He replied, "Yes."
