1826. Zahdam Al-Jarmī said: "I entered upon Abū Mūsā while he was eating chicken, and he said: 'Sit and eat, for indeed I saw the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ eating it.'" (Sahīh) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan. This Hadīth has been reported through other routes from Zahdam, and we do not know of it except as a narration of Zahdam. (One of the narrators) Abū Al-'Awwām is 'Imrān Al-Qaṭṭān.

Arabic text

١٨٢٦ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌زَيْدُ بْنُ أَخْزَمَ الطَّائِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌أَبُو قُتَيْبَةَ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي الْعَوَّامِ ، عَنْ ‌قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ ‌زَهْدَمٍ الْجَرْمِيِّ قَالَ: «دَخَلْتُ عَلَى ‌أَبِي مُوسَى وَهُوَ يَأْكُلُ دَجَاجَةً، فَقَالَ: ادْنُ فَكُلْ، فَإِنِّي رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَأْكُلُهُ» هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ. وَقَدْ رُوِيَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ مِنْ غَيْرِ وَجْهٍ عَنْ زَهْدَمٍ، وَلَا نَعْرِفُهُ إِلَّا مِنْ حَدِيثِ زَهْدَمٍ. وَأَبُو الْعَوَّامِ هُوَ: عِمْرَانُ الْقَطَّانُ.

Commentary

Imām Mālik and Ath-Thawrī consider it lawful to eat the meat of a chicken eating from a garbage dump. They only opposed it on account of natural abhorrence and aversion.
