٢ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ مَا كَانَ يَصُفُّ مِنَ الطَّيْرِ فَلَيْسَ لَكَ أَنْ تُخْرِجَهُ وَمَا كَانَ لا يَصُفُّ فَلَكَ أَنْ تُخْرِجَهُ قَالَ وَسَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ دَجَاجِ الْحَبَشِ قَالَ لَيْسَ مِنَ الصَّيْدِ إِنَّمَا الصَّيْدُ مَا طَارَ بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ وَالأَرْضِ.
2. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from ibn abu ‘ Umayr from Mu‘awiyah ibn ‘Ammar who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah , has said, ‘Of the birds that which flaps its wings in flight is prohibited to be taken out; but you can take out that which does not flap its wings in flight.’ I then asked him (the Imam) about the Ethiopian chicken. He (the Imam) said, ‘It is not hunting a prey. Hunting a prey is that which flies between the sky and earth.’”
