Hadith 12.2
The Rites of Pilgrimage
‘Abd ar-Rahman b. Abu ‘Ammar said he asked Jabir b. 'Abdallah whether the hyena was considered game, and he said it was. He asked whether it might be eaten, and he said it might. He asked whether he had heard that from God's messenger, and he said that he had. Tirmidhi, Nasa'i and Shafi'i transmitted it, Tirmidhi saying this is a <i>hasan</i> <i>sahih</i> tradition.
وَعَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِيِ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ: سَأَلت جابرَ بنَ عبدِ اللَّهِ عَنِ الضَّبُعِ أَصَيْدٌ هِيَ؟ فَقَالَ: نَعَمْ فَقُلْتُ: أَيُؤْكَلُ؟ فَقَالَ: نَعَمْ فَقُلْتُ: سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ. رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيُّ وَالنَّسَائِيُّ وَالشَّافِعِيُّ وَقَالَ التِّرْمِذِيُّ: هَذَا حديثٌ حسنٌ صَحِيح
