It was
narrated that Abu Sa’eed Al-Khudri said:
“A man from among
Ahlus-Suffah called the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) when he had finished
the prayer, saying: ‘O Messenger of Allah! Our land is a land
infested
with mastigures. What do you think of (eating) mastigures?’
He said:
‘I have heard that a nation was transformed.’ He did not
tell us to
eat them, and he did not forbid that.”
