"عَنْ أَبى هريرة قال: قدمت البحرين فسألنى أهل البحرين عما يقذف البحرُ من السمكِ، فأمرتهم بأكله فلما قدمت سألت عمر بن الخطاب عن ذلك، فقال: ما أمرتهم؟ قلت: أمرتهمُ بأكله، قال: لو قلت غير ذلك لعلَوتُك بالدِّرة، ثم قرأ عمر بن الخطاب: {أُحِلَّ لَكُمْ صَيْدُ الْبَحْرِ وَطَعَامُهُ مَتَاعًا لَكُمْ} قال: صَيْدُه ما أصيد، وطعامه: ما رمى به".

"Narrated from Abu Hurayrah: I came to Bahrain, and the people of Bahrain asked me about what the sea casts up of fish, so I commanded them to eat it. When I came back, I asked 'Umar ibn al-Khattab about that, and he said: 'What did you command them?' I said: 'I commanded them to eat it.' He said: 'If you had said otherwise, I would have struck you with the whip.' Then 'Umar ibn al-Khattab recited: {Lawful for you is the game of the sea and its food, as a provision for you}. He said: 'Its game is what you hunt, and its food is what it casts up.'"
