مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ أَبَانِ بْنِ تَغْلِبَ عَمَّنْ أَخْبَرَهُ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) قَالَ سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ لُحُومِ الْخَيْلِ فَقَالَ لَا تَأْكُلْ إِلَّا أَنْ تُصِيبَكَ ضَرُورَةٌ وَ لُحُومِ الْحُمُرِ الْأَهْلِيَّةِ فَقَالَ فِي كِتَابِ عَلِيٍّ ( عليه السلام ) أَنَّهُ مَنَعَ أَكْلَهَا.
12. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Ali ibn al-Hakam from Aban Taghlib from the one who narrated to him who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah, Alayhi al-Salam, about the flesh of horses. He (the Imam) said, ‘Do not use it for food unless it is a matter of necessity, as well as the flesh of the domestic donkeys. He (the Imam) said, ’It is in the book of Ali, Alayhi al-Salam, that he (the Imam) prohibited using it for food.’”
