[Machine] I heard Abdullah bin Mas'ood saying, "Indeed, the prohibited (things) are the same as the permissible (things) in their prohibition."  

الطبراني:٨٨٥٣ – حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عُمَرَ الضَّبِّيُّ ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ رَجَاءَ ثنا إِسْرَائِيلُ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ قَالَ كُنْتُ جَالِسًا عِنْدَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ فَأَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ يَسْأَلُهُ عَنِ ابْنِهِ الْقَاسِمِ فَقَالَ غَدَا إِلَى الْكُنَاسَةِ يَطْلُبُ الضِّبَابَ فَقَالَ أَتَأْكُلُهُ؟ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ وَمَنْ حَرَّمَهُ؟

سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ مَسْعُودٍ يَقُولُ «إِنَّ مُحَرِّمَ الْحَلَالِ كَمُسْتَحِلِّ الْحَرَامِ»
