Hadith 2019
اُردوEn
أَخْبَرَنَا خَالِدُ بْنُ مَخْلَدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ أَبِي إِدْرِيسَ الْخَوْلَانِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي ثَعْلَبَةَ الْخُشَنِيِّ، قَالَ: "نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ أَكْلِ كُلِّ ذِي نَابٍ مِنْ السِّبَاعِ".
Sayyiduna Abu Tha’labah al-Khushani (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade eating every predatory animal with fangs.
Brief Explanation
(Commentary on Hadith 2018)
By "possessing fangs" is meant such teeth with which a predatory animal or bird wounds and tears apart its prey.
(Raz)
Most of the Ahl al-Hadith and the Imams hold the view that every predatory animal possessing fangs (canines), which catches and attacks its prey with its teeth, is forbidden (haram), such as: the wolf, lion, dog, leopard, bear, cat, etc.
And Imam Shafi‘i rahimahullah said: the hyena and the fox are lawful (halal).
Imam Abu Hanifah rahimahullah said: these are also forbidden (haram) like other predatory animals; likewise, the jackal and the wildcat, etc., are also forbidden (haram) (Wahidi).
