حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ وَرَوْحٌ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ أَبِي الْفُرَاتِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ عَنْ أَبِي الْأَعْيَنِ الْعَبْدِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي الْأَحْوَصِ الْجُشَمِيِّ عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ
سَأَلْنَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَنِ الْقِرَدَةِ وَالْخَنَازِيرِ أَهِيَ مِنْ نَسْلِ الْيَهُودِ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: إِنَّ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَمْ يَلْعَنْ قَوْمًا قَطُّ. قَالَ رَوْحٌ: فَمَسَخَهُمْ، فَيَكُونَ لَهُمْ نَسْلٌ حَتَّى يُهْلِكَهُمْ، وَلَكِنَّ هَذَا خَلْقٌ كَانَ، فَلَمَّا غَضِبَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ عَلَى الْيَهُودِ مَسَخَهُمْ، فَجَعَلَهُمْ مِثْلَهُمْ.

✧ We asked the Messenger of God ﷺ about monkeys and pigs: are they from the progeny of the Jews? The Messenger of God ﷺ said: 'God, Mighty and Majestic, has never cursed a people' — Rawh said: 'and transformed them so that they would have progeny until He destroyed them. Rather, this is a creation that existed, and when God, Mighty and Majestic, became angry with the Jews, He transformed them and made them like them.'
