حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مُوسَى الْفَزَارِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا سَيْفُ بْنُ هَارُونَ الْبُرْجُمِيُّ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ التَّيْمِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ، عَنْ سَلْمَانَ، قَالَ سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَنِ السَّمْنِ وَالْجُبْنِ وَالْفِرَاءِ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ ‏

"‏ الْحَلاَلُ مَا أَحَلَّ اللَّهُ فِي كِتَابِهِ وَالْحَرَامُ مَا حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ فِي كِتَابِهِ وَمَا سَكَتَ عَنْهُ فَهُوَ مِمَّا عَفَا عَنْهُ ‏"

Narrated Salman:

"The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was asked about fat, cheese, and furs, so he said: 'The lawful is what Allah made lawful in His Book, the unlawful is what Allah made unlawful in his Book, and what He was silent about; then it is among that for which He has pardoned.'"

[Abu 'Eisa said:] There is something on this topic from Al-Mughirah, and this Hadith is Gharib, we do not know of it being Marfu' except from this route. Sufyan and others reported it from Sulaiman At-Taimi, from Abu 'Uthman, from Salman as his own saying. It is as if the Mawquf narration is more correct. I asked Al-Bukhari about this Hadith and he said: 'I do not think it is preserved. Sufyan reported it from Sulaiman At-Taimi from Abu 'Uthman, from Salman in Mawquf form.' Al-Bukhari said: "Saif bin Harun is Muqarib (Average) in Hadith, and as for Saif bin Muhammad from 'Asim, his narrations are left."

Reported by At-Tirmidhi (No. 1726) and Ibn Majah (No. 3367).

قَوْلُهُ : ( عَنْ سَيْفِ بْنِ هَارُونَ ) البرجمي قَالَ فِي النَّيْلِ : هُوَ ضَعِيفٌ مَتْرُوكٌ , وَقَالَ فِي تَهْذِيبِ التَّهْذِيبِ فِي تَرْجَمَتِهِ : رَوَى لَهُ التِّرْمِذِيُّ وَابْنُ مَاجَهْ حَدِيثًا وَاحِدًا فِي السُّؤَالِ عَنْ الْفِرَاءِ وَالسَّمْنِ وَالْجُبُنِّ الْحَدِيثَ. قَوْلُهُ : ( عَنْ السَّمْنِ وَالْجُبُنِّ ) كَعُتُلٍّ هُوَ لَبَنٌ يُجَمَّدُ يُقَالُ لَهُ بِالْفَارِسِيَّةِ بنير ( وَالْفِرَاءِ ) قَالَ الْقَارِي : بِكَسْرِ الْفَاءِ وَالْمَدِّ جَمْعُ الْفَرَاءِ بِفَتْحِ الْفَاءِ مَدًّا وَقَصْرًا وَهُوَ حِمَارُ الْوَحْشِ قَالَ الْقَاضِي : وَقِيلَ هُوَ هَاهُنَا جَمْعُ الْفَرْوِ الَّذِي يُلْبَسُ وَيَشْهَدُ لَهُ صَنِيعُ بَعْضِ الْمُحَدِّثِينَ كَالتِّرْمِذِيِّ فَإِنَّهُ ذَكَرَهُ فِي بَابِ لُ…

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was asked about ghee, cheese and wild donkeys. He said: ‘What is lawful is that which Allah has permitted, in His Book and what is unlawful is that which Allah has forbidden in His Book. What He remained silent about is what is pardoned.’”
