Abdullah bin Abbas reported,

Khalid bin Walid, who was called the Sword of Allah, reported that he entered the house of Maymunah along with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. She was his maternal aunt and the maternal aunt of Ibn Abbas. He found there a roasted lizard which her sister Hufaydah bint Harith had brought from Najd. She presented the lizard to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, who rarely extended his hand toward any food until he had been told what it was and it had been named to him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ reached his hand toward the lizard.One of the women present said, "Tell the Messenger of Allah ﷺ what you have offered him. It is a lizard, Messenger of Allah."The Messenger of Allah ﷺ withdrew his hand from the lizard.Khalid bin Walid asked, "Is the lizard forbidden, Messenger of Allah?"He replied, "No, but it is not found in the land of my people, and I find myself averse to it."Khalid said, "So I drew it toward me and ate it, while the Messenger of Allah ﷺ watched me."

عن ابن عباس

أن خالد بن الوليد، الذي يقال له سيف الله، أخبره: أنه دخل مع رسول الله ﷺ على ميمونة، وهي خالته وخالة ابن عباس، فوجد عندها ضبا محنوذا، قدمت به أختها حفيدة بنت الحارث من نجد، فقدمت الضب الرسول الله ﷺ، وكان قلما يقدم يده لطعام حتى يحدث به ويسمى له، فأهوى رسول الله ﷺ يده إلى الضب، فقالت امرأة من النسوة الحضور: أخبرن رسول الله ﷺ ما قدمتن له، هو الضب يا رسول الله، فرفع رسول الله ﷺ يده عن الضب، فقال خالد بن الوليد: أحرام الضب يا رسول الله؟ قال: لا، ولكن لم يكن بأرض قومي، فأجدني أعافه. قال خالد فاجتررته فأكلته، ورسول الله ﷺ ينظر إلي.
