📖 1 min readعن زَهْدَم بن مُضَرِّبٍ الْجَرْمي قالَ: «كنا عند أبي موسى الأشعري، فدعا بمائدة وعليها لحم دجاج، فدخل رجل من بني تَيْمِ الله أَحْمَرُ، شَبِيهٌ بِالمَوَالِي، فقال له: هَلُمَّ، فَتَلَكَّأَ، فقال له: هَلُمَّ، فإني رأيتُ رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يأكل منه».
Zahdam ibn Mudarrib al-Jarmi reported that he and other people were hosted by Abu Mūsa al-Ash‘ari, who served them chicken meat. Meanwhile, a man from Banu Taymullāh, who had a red complexion and looked like foreigners, came in. Abu Mūsa invited him to join them. However, he hesitated and showed reluctance. Abu Mūsa then told him that he saw the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) eating chicken meat.
