It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, was asked about a mouse that falls into clarified butter (ghee) and dies. He, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "If the ghee is solid, then remove the mouse and the ghee around it, and if it is liquid, then do not use it for eating."
