Hadith 914
- " لا تطعموهم مما لا تأكلون. يعني المساكين ".
Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) says: The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) was presented with a lizard as a gift, but he did not eat it. Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said: O Messenger of Allah! Should we give it to the poor to eat? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Do not feed others what you do not eat yourselves."
