It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that a person presented clarified butter, lizard, and cheese as a gift to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ate some of the clarified butter and cheese, but left the lizard due to dislike, and said: "This is something I have never eaten, but whoever wishes to eat it may do so." Thus, others ate it from the Prophet’s (peace and blessings be upon him) dining mat.
