Hadith #359

Arabic Text

English Translation

It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنهما) — via Sa'id ibn Jubayr — that he said: 'My maternal aunt Umm Hufayd gifted the Messenger of Allah ﷺ clarified butter [samn], dried curd [aqit], and lizards [dabb]. He ate of the clarified butter and dried curd but left the lizards out of distaste. They were [nonetheless] eaten at the table of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ — and had they been forbidden, they would not have been eaten at his table.'
