EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the permissibility of eating certain types of animals, such as insects and small creatures found on land. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ did not prohibit this type of food, which means that it is permissible for Muslims to eat these types of animals if they choose to do so. However, it is important to note that there are certain restrictions when it comes to consuming any type of animal, such as ensuring that the animal has been slaughtered in a humane manner according to Islamic law. Additionally, some scholars have argued that consuming these types of animals should be avoided due to their potential health risks or because they may contain toxins or parasites. Therefore, Muslims should exercise caution when deciding whether or not to consume these types of animals.
