حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ سَعْدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ صَالِحِ بْنِ كَيْسَانَ وَحَدَّثَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ بْنِ سَهْلٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّهُ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ خَالِدَ بْنَ الْوَلِيدِ دَخَلَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى مَيْمُونَةَ بِنْتِ الْحَارِثِ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ فَقُدِّمَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَحْمُ ضَبٍّ جَاءَتْ بِهِ أُمُّ حُفَيْدٍ ابْنَةُ الْحَارِثِ مِنْ نَجْدٍ وَكَانَتْ تَحْتَ رَجُلٍ مِنْ بَنِي جَعْفَرٍ وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَا يَأْكُلُ شَيْئًا حَتَّى يَعْلَمَ مَا هُوَ فَقَالَ بَعْضُ النِّسْوَةِ أَلَا تُخْبِرِينَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَا يَأْكُلُ فَأَخْبَرَتْهُ أَنَّهُ لَحْمُ ضَبٍّ فَتَرَكَهُ قَالَ خَالِدٌ فَسَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَحَرَامٌ هُوَ قَالَ لَا وَلَكِنَّهُ طَعَامٌ لَيْسَ فِي قَوْمِي فَأَجِدُنِي أَعَافُهُ قَالَ خَالِدٌ فَاجْتَرَرْتُهُ إِلَيَّ فَأَكَلْتُهُ وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَنْظُرُ قَالَ وَحَدَّثَهُ الْأَصَمُّ عَنْ مَيْمُونَةَ وَكَانَ فِي حِجْرِهَا يَعْنِي بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ وَأَظُنُّ أَنَّ الْأَصَمَّ يَزِيدُ بْنُ الْأَصَمِّ.
English Translation
Ya'qub bin Ibrahim bin Sa'd told us: my father told me, from Salih bin Kaysan, and Ibn Shihab narrated from Abu Umamah bin Sahl, from Ibn 'Abbas, that he informed him that Khalid bin al-Walid entered with the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, upon Maymunah bint al-Harith while she was menstruating. A dish of lizard meat was brought to the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, which Umm Hufayd bint al-Harith had brought from Najd - she was married to a man from Banu Ja'far. The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, would not eat anything until he knew what it was. Some of the women said: "Will you not tell the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, what he is eating?" So they told him it was lizard meat, and he left it. Khalid said: "I asked the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him: 'Is it forbidden?' He said: 'No, but it is a food that is not found among my people, so I find myself averse to it.'" Khalid said: "So I pulled it towards myself and ate it while the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, was watching." He said: And al-Asamm narrated it to him, from Maymunah - and he was in her lap - meaning by this the hadith. And I think that al-Asamm is Yazid bin al-Asamm.
