حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَعْشَرٍ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، رضى الله عنها قَالَتْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ "‏ لاَ تَقْطَعُوا اللَّحْمَ بِالسِّكِّينِ فَإِنَّهُ مِنْ صَنِيعِ الأَعَاجِمِ وَانْهَسُوهُ فَإِنَّهُ أَهْنَأُ وَأَمْرَأُ ‏"‏ . قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَلَيْسَ هُوَ بِالْقَوِيِّ .

বাংলা অনুবাদ
। আয়িশাহ (রাঃ) সূত্রে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেছেনঃ তোমরা ছুরি দিয়ে গোশত কেটে (খাবে) না। কেননা এটা অনারাবদের রীতি, বরং তা দাঁত দিয়ে কামড়ে খাও। কারণ তা অধিক উপকারী ও স্বাস্থ্যকর। ইমাম আবূ দাঊদ (রহঃ) বলেন, হাদীসটি শক্তিশালী নয়। দুর্বলঃ মিশকাত (৪২১৫)।
