Chapter 38 · The Book of Hunting , Slaughter and what may be Eatenوحَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الطَّاهِرِ، وَحَرْمَلَةُ، جَمِيعًا عَنِ ابْنِ وَهْبٍ، قَالَ حَرْمَلَةُ: أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي يُونُسُ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ بْنِ سَهْلِ بْنِ حُنَيْفٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عَبَّاسٍ، أَخْبَرَهُ، أَنَّ خَالِدَ بْنَ الْوَلِيدِ، الَّذِي يُقَالُ لَهُ: سَيْفُ اللهِ، أَخْبَرَهُ، أَنَّهُ دَخَلَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى مَيْمُونَةَ، زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهِيَ خَالَتُهُ وَخَالَةُ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، فَوَجَدَ عِنْدَهَا ضَبًّا مَحْنُوذًا، قَدِمَتْ بِهِ أُخْتُهَا حُفَيْدَةُ بِنْتُ الْحَارِثِ مِنْ نَجْدٍ، فَقَدَّمَتِ الضَّبَّ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَكَانَ قَلَّمَا يُقَدَّمُ إِلَيْهِ طَعَامٌ حَتَّى يُحَدَّثَ بِهِ وَيُسَمَّى لَهُ، فَأَهْوَى رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَدَهُ إِلَى الضَّبِّ، فَقَالَتِ امْرَأَةٌ مِنَ النِّسْوَةِ الْحُضُورِ: أَخْبِرْنَ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِمَا قَدَّمْتُنَّ لَهُ، قُلْنَ: هُوَ الضَّبُّ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، فَرَفَعَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَدَهُ، فَقَالَ خَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ: أَحَرَامٌ الضَّبُّ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ: «لَا، وَلَكِنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ بِأَرْضِ قَوْمِي فَأَجِدُنِي أَعَافُهُ»، قَالَ خَالِدٌ: فَاجْتَرَرْتُهُ، فَأَكَلْتُهُ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَنْظُرُ، فَلَمْ يَنْهَنِي.

Khalid bin Walid رضی اللہ عنہ who is called the Sword of Allah had informed him that he visited Maimuna رضی اللہ عنہا , the wife of Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ), in the company of Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ), and she was the sister of his mother (that of Khalid) and that of 'Ibn Abbas رضی اللہ عنہ, and he found with her a roasted lizard which her sister Hufaida the daughter of al-Harith رضی اللہ عنہا had brought from Najd, and she presented that lizard to Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ). It was rare that some food was presented to the Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) and it was not mentioned or named. While Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) was about to stretch forth his hand towards the lizard, a woman from amongst the women present there informed the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) what they had presented to him. They said: Messenger of Allah, it is a lizard. Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) withdrew his hand, whereupon Khalid bin Walid رضی اللہ عنہ said: Messenger of Allah, is a lizard forbidden? There open he said: No, but it is not found in the land of my people, and I feel that I have no liking for it. Khalid رضی اللہ عنہ said: I then chewed and ate it, and Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) was looking at me and he did not forbid (me to eat it).
