Sayyiduna Salman (may Allah be pleased with him) said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said the same, and he said: "It is the great army of Allah."
The Shaykh said: If this is authentic, it too indicates that it is permissible, for since he did not declare it unlawful, it is lawful; he only did not eat it himself out of distaste.
