It is narrated from Hazrat Abdul A'la. He says that I asked Hazrat Ibn al-Hanafiyyah about the lizard. So he replied, "If you like it, then eat it."

It is narrated from Hazrat Asma bin Rabee. He says that we presented ourselves before Hazrat Umar. We were some people whose condition was very good. He states that Hazrat Umar asked: What is your food? We said: Dabb (a type of lizard). The narrator says: Upon this, Hazrat Umar said: Does it suffice you? We said: Yes! Upon this, he said: I like that with every dabb there should be another like it (i.e., another dabb).
