3240. It was narrated that Abu Sa'eed Al-Khudri said: "A man from among Ahlus-Suffah called the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ when he had finished the prayer, saying: 'O Messenger of Allāh! Our land is a land infested with mastigures. What do you think of (eating) mastigures?' He said: 'I have heard that a nation was transformed.' He did not tell us to eat them, and he did not forbid that." (Sahih)

Arabic text

3240 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحِيمِ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ أَبِي هِنْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي نَضْرَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، قَالَ: نَادَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الصُّفَّةِ، حِينَ انْصَرَفَ مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ، فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ: إِنَّ أَرْضَنَا أَرْضٌ مَضَبَّةٌ، فَمَا تَرَى فِي الضِّبَابِ قَالَ: «بَلَغَنِي أَنَّهُ، أُمَّةً مُسِخَتْ» فَلَمْ يَأْمُرْ بِهِ، وَلَمْ يَنْهَ عَنْهُ
