Abdur Rahman bin Abdullah bin Abi Ammar said: I asked Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them): Can the hyena be eaten? He replied: You can eat it. I asked: Can it be hunted? He replied: Yes. I said: Did you hear this from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)? He replied: Yes. Imam Darimi (may Allah have mercy on him) was asked: What do you say about the hyena? Can it be eaten? He said: I do not like to eat it.
