٦ـ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الأَشْعَرِيُّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ مَنْصُورِ بْنِ حَازِمٍ عَنْ مُثَنَّى بْنِ عَبْدِ السَّلامِ عَنْ كَرِبٍ الصَّيْرَفِيِّ قَالَ كُنَّا جَمَاعَةً فَاشْتَرَيْنَا طَيْراً فَقَصَصْنَاهُ وَدَخَلْنَا بِهِ مَكَّةَ فَعَابَ ذَلِكَ عَلَيْنَا أَهْلُ مَكَّةَ فَأَرْسَلَ كَرِبٌ إِلَى أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) فَسَأَلَهُ فَقَالَ اسْتَوْدِعُوهُ رَجُلاً مِنْ أَهْلِ مَكَّةَ مُسْلِماً أَوِ امْرَأَةً مُسْلِمَةً فَإِذَا اسْتَوَى خَلَّوْا سَبِيلَهُ.
6. Abu Ali al-Ash’ariy has narrated from Muhammad ‘Abd al-Jabbar from Safwan ibn Yahya from Mansur ibn Hazim from Muthanna’ ibn ‘Abd al-Salam from Karib al-Sayrafiy who has said the following: “We were a group and bought a bird, cut its wings short and brought it in Makkah. People criticized us for this and Karib sent someone to abu ‘Abd Allah , to ask him (the Imam) about it. He (the Imam) said, ‘Leave it in the trust of a Muslim man or woman of Makkah, who will release it when it will become normal .’”
