Hadith #119
Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنٌ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ جَابِرًا عَنْ الضَّبِّ فَقَالَ أُتِيَ ر
َسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِهِ فَقَالَ لَا أَطْعَمُهُ وَقَذِرَهُ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَمْ يُحَرِّمْهُ وَإِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَيَنْفَعُ بِهِ غَيْرَ وَاحِدٍ وَهُوَ طَعَامُ عَامَّةِ الرِّعَاءِ وَلَوْ كَانَ عِنْدِي لَطَعِمْتُهُ

English Translation
Hasan narrated to us, Ibn Lahi'ah narrated to us, Abu al-Zubayr narrated to us who said: I asked Jabir about the lizard (dabb). He said: the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was brought one, and he said: 'I will not eat it,' and he found it repulsive. Umar ibn al-Khattab (رضي الله عنه) said: 'the Messenger of Allah ﷺ has not declared it unlawful.' And Umar ate from it while the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was looking on.
