Chapter 32 · The Chapter on Huntingحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحِيمِ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ أَبِي هِنْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي نَضْرَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، قَالَ: نَادَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الصُّفَّةِ حِينَ انْصَرَفَ مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنَّ أَرْضَنَا أَرْضٌ مَضَبَّةٌ، فَمَا تَرَى فِي الضِّبَاب؟، قَالَ: بَلَغَنِي أَنَّهُ أُمَّةً مُسِخَتْ فَلَمْ يَأْمُرْ بِهِ، وَلَمْ يَنْهَ عَنْهُ.

It was narrated that Abu Sa’eed Al-Khudri said: “A man from among Ahlus-Suffah called the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) when he had finished the prayer, saying: ‘O Messenger of Allah! Our land is a land infested with mastigures. What do you think of (eating) mastigures?’ He said: ‘I have heard that a nation was transformed.’ He did not tell us to eat them, and he did not forbid that.”
