حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُصَفَّى الْحِمْصِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ الزُّبَيْدِيُّ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ بْنِ سَهْلِ بْنِ حُنَيْفٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ الْوَلِيدِ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ أُتِيَ بِضَبٍّ مَشْوِيٍّ فَقُرِّبَ إِلَيْهِ فَأَهْوَى بِيَدِهِ لِيَأْكُلَ مِنْهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ مَنْ حَضَرَهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّهُ لَحْمُ ضَبٍّ . فَرَفَعَ يَدَهُ عَنْهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ خَالِدٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَحَرَامٌ الضَّبُّ قَالَ " لاَ وَلَكِنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ بِأَرْضِي فَأَجِدُنِي أَعَافُهُ " . قَالَ فَأَهْوَى خَالِدٌ إِلَى الضَّبِّ فَأَكَلَ مِنْهُ وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ يَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ .

Muḥammad ibn al-Muṣaffā al-Ḥimṣī narrated to us: Muḥammad ibn Ḥarb narrated to us: Muḥammad ibn al-Walīd al-Zubaydī narrated to us, from al-Zuhrī, from Abū Umāmah ibn Sahl ibn Ḥunayf, from ʿAbd Allāh ibn ʿAbbās, from Khālid ibn al-Walīd, that a roasted desert monitor lizard was brought to the Messenger of God (peace and blessings be upon him). It was placed near him, and he reached out to eat from it. Someone present said: Messenger of God, this is desert monitor lizard meat. He withdrew his hand. Khālid asked: Messenger of God, is the desert monitor forbidden? He replied: No, but it is not found in my land, so I find myself averse to it. Khālid then reached for the lizard and ate from it while the Messenger of God (peace and blessings be upon him) watched him.
