قَالَ اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى: {الَّذِينَ يَتَّبِعُونَ الرَّسُولَ النَّبِيَّ الْأُمِّيَّ الَّذِي يَجِدُونَهُ مَكْتُوبًا عِنْدَهُمْ فِي التَّوْرَاةِ وَالْإِنْجِيلِ يَأْمُرُهُمْ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَيَنْهَاهُمْ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ وَيُحِلُّ لَهُمُ الطَّيِّبَاتِ وَيُحَرِّمُ عَلَيْهِمُ الْخَبَائِثَ} [الأعراف: 157]. قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ: وَإِنَّمَا تَكُونُ الطَّيِّبَاتُ ⦗528⦘ وَالْخَبَائِثُ عِنْدَ الْآكِلِينَ كَانُوا لَهَا وَهُمُ الْعَرَبُ الَّذِينَ سَأَلُوا عَنْ هَذَا، وَنَزَلَتْ فِيهِمُ الْأَحْكَامُ. قَالَ: وَسَمِعْتُ بَعْضَ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ يَقُولُونَ فِي قَوْلِ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ: {قُلْ لَا أَجِدُ فِي مَا أُوحِيَ إِلِيَّ مُحَرَّمًا عَلَى طَاعِمٍ يَطْعَمُهُ} [الأنعام: 145] يَعْنِي: مِمَّا كُنْتُمْ تَأْكُلُونَ إِلَّا أَنْ يَكُونَ مَيْتَةً وَمَا ذَكَرَ بَعْدَهَا. قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ: وَهَذَا أَوْلَى مَعَانِيهِ اسْتِدْلَالًا بِالسُّنَّةِ..
Allah, the Blessed and Exalted, says: "Those who follow the Messenger, the unlettered Prophet, whom they find written with them in the Torah and the Gospel, who commands them what is right and forbids them what is wrong, and makes lawful for them the good things and forbids them the impure things." [Surah al-A'raf: 157]
Imam al-Shafi'i (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "The good and the impure things are determined only by those who used to eat them, and they are the Arabs, who asked about this and concerning whom the rulings were revealed."
He (further) said: "I heard some of the people of knowledge say concerning the saying of Allah, the Mighty and Majestic: 'Say: I do not find, in what has been revealed to me, anything forbidden to one who would eat it' [Surah al-An'am: 145] that it means: of what you used to eat, except that it be carrion, and the things mentioned after it."
Imam al-Shafi'i (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "By inference from the Sunnah, this is the most fitting of its meanings."

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الْقَاضِي، وَأَبُو زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ الْمُزَكِّي قَالُوا: ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، أنبأ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْحَكَمِ، أنبأ ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي مَالِكُ بْنُ أَنَسٍ، وَابْنُ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ، وَعَمْرُو بْنُ الْحَارِثِ، وَيُونُسُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ، وَغَيْرُهُمْ أَنَّ ابْنَ شِهَابٍ حَدَّثَهُمْ عَنْ أَبِي إِدْرِيسَ الْخَوْلَانِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي ثَعْلَبَةَ الْخُشَنِيِّ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَهَى عَنْ أَكْلِ كُلِّ ذِي نَابٍ مِنَ السِّبَاعِ. رَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ فِي الصَّحِيحِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ يُوسُفَ عَنْ مَالِكٍ قَالَ: وَتَابَعَهُ يُونُسُ وَجَمَاعَةٌ ذَكَرَهُمْ، وَرَوَاهُ مُسْلِمٌ عَنْ أَبِي الطَّاهِرِ، عَنِ ابْنِ وَهْبٍ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ وَابْنِ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ وَيُونُسَ، وَعَنْ هَارُونَ الْأَيْلِيِّ، عَنِ ابْنِ وَهْبٍ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو.
Sayyiduna Abu Tha'labah al-Khushani (may Allah be pleased with him) said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade "eating the meat of every beast of prey that has fangs."
