"We went with the Messenger of Allah during Hajj or Umrah and we encountered a swarm of locusts. We began striking at them with our whips and set our staffs, and the Prophet said: "Eat it, for indeed it is game of the sea."  

الترمذي:٨٥٠حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أَبِي الْمُهَزِّمِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ

خَرَجْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي حَجٍّ أَوْ عُمْرَةٍ فَاسْتَقْبَلَنَا رِجْلٌ مِنْ جَرَادٍ فَجَعَلْنَا نَضْرِبُهُ بِسِيَاطِنَا وَعِصِيِّنَا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ كُلُوهُ فَإِنَّهُ مِنْ صَيْدِ الْبَحْرِ  

قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ لاَ نَعْرِفُهُ إِلاَّ مِنْ حَدِيثِ أَبِي الْمُهَزِّمِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ وَأَبُو الْمُهَزِّمِ اسْمُهُ يَزِيدُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ وَقَدْ تَكَلَّمَ فِيهِ شُعْبَةُ وَقَدْ رَخَّصَ قَوْمٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ لِلْمُحْرِمِ أَنْ يَصِيدَ الْجَرَادَ وَيَأْكُلَهُ وَرَأَى بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَيْهِ صَدَقَةً إِذَا اصْطَادَهُ وَأَكَلَهُ

[Machine] We were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ during Hajj or Umrah when a man from the tribe of Jurad approached us. We began striking the locusts with our whips and sticks and killing them, but then we questioned ourselves, "What have we done while we are in a state of Ihram?" So we asked the Prophet ﷺ and he said, "There is no harm in catching the creatures of the sea."

[Machine] I heard Abu Hurairah saying: We were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ during Hajj or Umrah, and a man from the Jaraad tribe approached us. We began striking him with our whips and sticks until we killed him. Then we became doubtful as to what we should do since we were in a state of Ihram. So we asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and he said, "There is no blame."

[Machine] I heard Abu Hurairah say, "We were with the Prophet ﷺ during Hajj or Umrah when we encountered a man from the tribe of Jarad. We started striking him with our sticks and whips, but then they slipped from our hands. We asked ourselves, 'What have we done while we are in a state of Ihram (sacred state)?' So, we asked the Prophet ﷺ about it, and he said, 'There is no harm in hunting from the sea.'"
