Narrated Khalid bin Al-Walid: That he went with Allah's Apostle to the house of Maimuna, who was his and Ibn `Abbas' aunt. He found with her a roasted mastigure which her sister Hufaida bint Al-Harith had brought from Najd. Maimuna presented the mastigure before Allah's Apostle who rarely started eating any (unfamiliar) food before it was described and named for him. (But that time) Allah's Apostle stretched his hand towards the (meat of the) mastigure whereupon a lady from among those who were present, said, You should inform Allah's Apostle of what you have presented to him. O Allah's Apostle! It is the meat of a mastigure. (On learning that) Allah's Apostle withdrew his hand from the meat of the mastigure. Khalid bin Al-Walid said, O Allah's Apostle! Is this unlawful to eat? Allah's Apostle replied, No, but it is not found in the land of my people, so I do not like it. Khalid said, Then I pulled the mastigure (meat) towards me and ate it while Allah's Apostle was looking at me.
