حَدَّثَنَا عَبْد اللَّهِ قَالَ وَجَدْتُ فِي كِتَابِ أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ أَخْبَرَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ عُمَرَ يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَسَأَلَهُ رَجُلٌ عَنْ الضَّبِّ قَالَ لَا آكُلُهُ وَلَا أُحَرِّمُهُ

It was narrated from Abdullah Ibn Dinar. I beard Ibn ‘Umar say: I heard the Prophet (PBUH) say, when a man asked him about lizards: " l do not eat it but I do not prohibit it."
