"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prohibited the price of the dog and the cat."  

[Abu 'Eisa said:] There is some confusion (Idtirab) in the chain for this Hadith. The price of a cat is not correct. This Hadith has been reported from Al-A'mash, from some of his companions, from Jabir, and they caused some confusion for Al-A'mash in this narration. There are those among the people of knowledge who disliked the price of a cat, and some of them permitted it. This is the view of Ahmad and Ishaq. It has been reported from Ibn Al-Fudail, from Al-A'mash, from Abu Hazim, from Abu Hurairah from the Prophet ﷺ, through other than this route.
الترمذي:١٢٧٩حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ خَشْرَمٍ قَالاَ أَنْبَأَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ عَنْ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ

نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنْ ثَمَنِ الْكَلْبِ وَالسِّنَّوْرِ  

قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ فِي إِسْنَادِهِ اضْطِرَابٌ وَلاَ يَصِحُّ فِي ثَمَنِ السِّنَّوْرِ وَقَدْ رُوِيَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِهِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ وَاضْطَرَبُوا عَلَى الأَعْمَشِ فِي رِوَايَةِ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ وَقَدْ كَرِهَ قَوْمٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ ثَمَنَ الْهِرِّ وَرَخَّصَ فِيهِ بَعْضُهُمْ وَهُوَ قَوْلُ أَحْمَدَ وَإِسْحَاقَ وَرَوَى ابْنُ فُضَيْلٍ عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ عَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ مِنْ غَيْرِ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ
tirmidhi:1280Yaḥyá b. Mūsá > ʿAbd al-Razzāq > ʿUmar b. Zayd al-Ṣanʿānī > Abū al-Zubayr > Jābir

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prohibited eating the cat and from its price."  

[Abu 'Eisa said:] This Hadith is Gharib. We do not know of any major (known) narrators who reports from 'Umar bin Zaid (one of the narrators) besides 'Abdur-Razzaq.
الترمذي:١٢٨٠حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ مُوسَى حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ الصَّنْعَانِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ

نَهَى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عَنْ أَكْلِ الْهِرِّ وَثَمَنِهِ  

قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ وَعُمَرُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ لاَ نَعْرِفُ كَبِيرَ أَحَدٍ رَوَى عَنْهُ غَيْرَ عَبْدِ الرَّزَّاقِ
