4265. It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbâs, from Maimûnah, that the Prophet ﷺ was asked about a mouse that fell into the cooking fat. He said: "If it (the fat) is solid, then throw it away, and whatever is around it. If it is liquid then do not use it at all.” (Da'if)
4260 - أَخْبَرَنَا خُشَيْشُ بْنُ أَصْرَمَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ بُوذُوَيْهِ، أَنَّ مَعْمَرًا ذَكَرَهُ، عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، عَنْ مَيْمُونَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ سُئِلَ عَنِ الْفَأْرَةِ تَقَعُ فِي السَّمْنِ، فَقَالَ: «إِنْ كَانَ جَامِدًا فَأَلْقُوهَا وَمَا حَوْلَهَا، وَإِنْ كَانَ مَائِعًا فَلَا تَقْرَبُوهُ»

If the clarified butter is, however, liquefied, the mouse is likely to float in it after having died. In this instance, the whole clarified butter would be considered its surrounding. It shall, therefore, have to be completely destroyed. Even otherwise, in the liquefied clarified butter, it is difficult to ascertain the purity of the clarified butter close to the mouse.
