Handling Contaminated Food

SUMMARY: The Prophet gave instructions on how to handle a mouse that had died in cooking fat.

It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas, form Maimunah, that: a mouse fell into some cooking fat and died. The Prophet was asked (about that) and he said: "Throw it away, and whatever is around it, and eat (the rest)".
أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، عَنْ مَيْمُونَةَ، أَنَّ فَأْرَةً، وَقَعَتْ، فِي سَمْنٍ فَمَاتَتْ فَسُئِلَ النَّبِيُّ فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ أَلْقُوهَا وَمَا حَوْلَهَا وَكُلُوهُ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the Prophet's instructions on how to handle food that has been contaminated by a dead mouse. He instructed people to discard the food and anything around it, and not consume it. This teaches us an important lesson about hygiene and cleanliness when handling food. We should always be careful when preparing or consuming food, as we do not know what may have come into contact with it before us. We should also be mindful of our environment and take care of our surroundings so that no contamination can occur in the first place. Furthermore, this hadith also teaches us to be respectful towards animals, even if they are considered pests or vermin; we should never harm them intentionally or cause them any distress.
