English Translation

Zakariyyā ibn ‘Adī narrated to us, ‘Ubayd Allāh informed us, from ‘Abd al-Malik ibn ‘Umayr, from Ḥuṣayn ibn Qabīṣah al-Fazārī, from Samurah ibn Jundub, who said: A Bedouin asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while he was delivering a sermon, interrupting it, and said: O Messenger of Allah, what do you say about lizards? He said: ‘A community from the Children of Israel was transformed (maskh), and Allah تبارك وتعالى knows best into which of the creatures they were transformed.’
