English translation

3794. It was narrated from Khālid bin Al-Walīd that he entered the house of Maimūnah with the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ. A roasted mastigure was brought, and the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ reached out his hand towards it. Some of the women who were in Maimūnah's house said: "Tell the Prophet ﷺ what he is about to eat." They said: "It is a mastigure." The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ withdrew his hand. I said: "Is it Harām, O Messenger of Allāh?" He said: "No, but it is not known in the land of my people and I find it distasteful." Khālid said: "I pulled it towards me and ate it, while the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ was looking on." (Sahih)

3794 - حَدَّثَنَا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ بْنِ سَهْلِ بْنِ حُنَيْفٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ الْوَلِيدِ، أَنَّهُ دَخَلَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَيْتَ مَيْمُونَةَ فَأُتِيَ بِضَبٍّ مَحْنُوذٍ فَأَهْوَى إِلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِيَدِهِ، فَقَالَ: بَعْضُ النِّسْوَةِ اللَّاتِي فِي بَيْتِ مَيْمُونَةَ: أَخْبِرُوا النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِمَا يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَأْكُلَ مِنْهُ، فَقَالُوا: هُوَ ضَبٌّ، فَرَفَعَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَدَهُ، قَالَ: فَقُلْتُ: أَحَرَامٌ هُوَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ: «لَا، وَلَكِنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ بِأَرْضِ قَوْمِي فَأَجِدُنِي أَعَافُهُ» قَالَ خَالِدٌ: فَاجْتَرَرْتُهُ، فَأَكَلْتُهُ وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَنْظُرُ
