Musnad Ahmad 3040
graded· 5389It was narrated from Ibn ‘Abbas (رضي الله عنه) that
Umm Hufaid bint al-Harith bin Hazn, the maternal aunt of Ibn 'Abbas, gave the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) some ghee, dried yoghurt and lizards. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) called for them and they were eaten at his table, but the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) refrained from eating them, as if he found them off-putting. If they were haram they would not have been eaten at the table of The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and he would not have told others to eat them.
