It is a lizard. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ raised his hand. I (Khalid) asked: Is it forbidden, Messenger of Allah? He replied, No, but it is not found in the land of my people, so I find it distasteful. Khalid said: I then pulled it and ate it while The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was seeing.

"A roasted mastigure was brought to the Prophet ﷺ who stretched his hand towards it to eat it. But it was said to him, "It is a mastigure." So he withdrew his hand. Khalid asked, "Is it unlawful to eat?" the Prophet said, "No, but it is not found in the land of my people and that is why I do not like eating it." So Khalid started eating (it) while Messenger of Allah ﷺ was looking at him. An-Nadr said: 'Al-Khazira' (is prepared) from bran while 'Al-Harira' is prepared from milk.

Messenger of Allah ﷺ and I entered the house of Maimuna. A roasted mastigure was served. Messenger of Allah ﷺ stretched his hand out (to eat of it) but some woman said, "Inform Messenger of Allah ﷺ of what he is about to eat." So they said, "It is mastigure, O Messenger of Allah ﷺ!" He withdrew his hand, whereupon I said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! Is it unlawful?" He said, "No, but this is not found in the land of my people, so I dislike it." So I pulled the mastigure towards me and ate it while Messenger of Allah ﷺ was looking at me.
