What is the explanation for these ahadeeth regarding the spoilage of meat related to the Israelite? How where they responsible for the fact of food rotting or becoming stale?
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, as per Sahih Al-Bukhari:
> "Were it not for Bani Israel, meat would not decay; and were it not for Eve, no woman would ever betray her husband."
>
> (Bukhari 60/72 )
As per Sahih Muslim:
> Hammam b. Munabbih said: These are some of the ahadith which Abu Huraira (Allah be pleased with him) narrated to us from Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), and one of these (this one): Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: Had it not been for Bani Isra'il, food would not have become stale, and meat would not have gone bad; and had it not been for Eve, a woman would never have acted unfaithfully toward her husband.
