وَعَن خُزَيمةَ بنَ جَزَيّ قَالَ: سَأَلَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ أَكْلِ الضَّبُعِ. قَالَ: " أَوَ يَأْكُلُ الضَّبُعَ أَحَدٌ؟ . وَسَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ أَكْلِ الذِّئْبِ. قَالَ: «أوَ يَأَكلُ الذِّئْبَ أَحَدٌ فِيهِ خَيْرٌ؟» . رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيُّ وَقَالَ: لَيْسَ إِسْنَاده بِالْقَوِيّ
Khuzaima b. Jazi said he asked God’s messenger about eating a hyena, and he replied, “Does anyone eat a hyena ? ” He asked him about eating a wolf, and he replied, “Does any one with any good in him eat a wolf ? ” Tirmidhi transmitted it, saying its isnad is not strong.
