ahmad:17930ʿAffān > Shuʿbah > ʿAdī b. Thābit > Zayd b. Wahb > Thābit Ibn Wadīʿah

[Machine] A man from the Banu Fazara came to the Prophet ﷺ with a gazelle. He then began to turn it around in front of him and said, "Indeed, a nation has been deformed." He continued, "And most of my knowledge is that he said, 'I don't know, perhaps this is from it.'" Shu'bah said, "Husayn reported from Zayd ibn Wahb from Hudhayfah that he mentioned something similar to this." The Prophet did not order for it nor did he forbid it from anyone.  

أحمد:١٧٩٣٠حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ وَهْبٍ عَنْ ثَابِتِ ابْنِ وَدِيعَةَ

أَنَّ رَجُلًا مِنْ بَنِي فَزَارَةَ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ بِضِبَابٍ قَالَ فَجَعَلَ يُقَلِّبُ ضَبًّا مِنْهَا بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فَقَالَ إِنَّ أُمَّةً مُسِخَتْ قَالَ وَأَكْثَرُ عِلْمِي أَنَّهُ قَالَ مَا أَدْرِي لَعَلَّ هَذَا مِنْهَا قَالَ شُعْبَةُ وَقَالَ حُصَيْنٌ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ وَهْبٍ عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ قَالَ فَذَكَرَ شَيْئًا نَحْوًا مِنْ هَذَا قَالَ فَلَمْ يَأْمُرْ به وَلَمْ يَنْهَ أَحَدًا عَنْهُ

[Machine] A man from the tribe of Fazarah came to the Prophet ﷺ with some wild animals that he had caught. He began flipping one of the animals in his hand and said, "A nation has been transformed." The Prophet said, "And the greatest of my knowledge is that he said, 'I do not know what it has done.'" He said, "And I do not know, perhaps this is one of them." Shu'bah said, and Husein said, from Zaid bin Wahb, from Hudhaifah, he said, "And he mentioned something similar to this." He did not command anything regarding it, nor did he forbid anyone.

[Machine] A man from the tribe of Bani Fazara came to the Prophet ﷺ with a bundle of hunted game and started flipping a lizard with it in his hand. The Prophet ﷺ said, "A nation of people were turned into animals." And my understanding of his statement is that he said, "I don't know what she did and I don't know if this is from her."
