English Translation

Muhammad ibn Ja'far told us, Shu'bah told us, from Adi ibn Thabit, from Zayd ibn Wahb, narrating from Thabit ibn Wadi'ah, from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, that a man brought him some spiny-tailed lizards he had caught. He began looking at one of the lizards, then said, "A nation was transformed; I do not know — perhaps this is one of them."
