الْمُحْرِمُ إِذَا أَصَابَ حَمَامَةً فَفِيهَا شَاةٌ وَ إِنْ قَتَلَ فِرَاخَهُ[1] فَفِيهِ حَمَلٌ وَ إِنْ وَطِئَ الْبَيْضَ فَعَلَيْهِ دِرْهَمٌ.
“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘If one in the state of Ihram kills a pigeon, the ransom for it is one sheep, if he kill its chick its ransom is one lamb, and if he steps on its egg its ransom is one dirham.’”
فِي الْحَمَامَةِ وَ أَشْبَاهِهَا إِذَا قَتَلَهَا الْمُحْرِمُ شَاةٌ وَ إِنْ كَانَ فِرَاخاً فَعَدْلُهَا مِنَ الْحُمْلَانِ وَ قَالَ فِي رَجُلٍ وَطِئَ بَيْضَ نَعَامَةٍ فَفَدَغَهَا[3] وَ هُوَ مُحْرِمٌ فَقَالَ قَضَى فِيهِ عَلِيٌّ ع أَنْ يُرْسِلَ الْفَحْلَ عَلَى مِثْلِ عَدَدِ الْبَيْضِ مِنَ الْإِبِلِ فَمَا لَقِحَ وَ سَلِمَ حَتَّى يُنْتَجَ كَانَ النِّتَاجُ هَدْياً بالِغَ الْكَعْبَةِ.
2. Muhammad b. Yahya has narrated from Ahmad b. Muhammad from Muhammad b. Isma‘il from al-Fadl b. Shadhan from Abul Sabbah al-Kinaniy who has said the following: “Abu Abdillah (as), has said, ‘For killing pigeons and its like in the state of Ihram, the ransom is one sheep, and for chicks it is one lamb for each.’ He (t
إِذَا قَتَلَ الْمُحْرِمُ قَطَاةً فَعَلَيْهِ حَمَلٌ قَدْ فُطِمَ مِنَ اللَّبَنِ وَ رَعَى مِنَ الشَّجَرِ.
“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘If one in the state of Ihram kills a sandgrouse, he owes one lamb which is weaned and grazes shrubs.’”
سَأَلْتُهُ[4] عَنْ مُحْرِمٍ وَطِئَ بَيْضَ قَطَاةٍ فَشَدَخَهُ قَالَ يُرْسِلُ الْفَحْلَ فِي عَدَدِ الْبَيْضِ مِنَ الْغَنَمِ كَمَا يُرْسِلُ الْفَحْلَ فِي عَدَدِ الْبَيْضِ مِنَ النَّعَامِ فِي الْإِبِلِ.
“I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about a man who in the state of Ihram steps on the egg of a sandgrouse and shatters it. He (the Imam) said, ‘He must send rams on ewes equal to the number of eggs affected, as in the case of the eggs of an ostrich in which male camel are sent on female camels.’”
فِي كِتَابِ عَلِيٍ صَلَوَاتُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ فِي بَيْضِ الْقَطَاةِ بَكَارَةٌ مِنَ الْغَنَمِ إِذَا أَصَابَهُ الْمُحْرِمُ مِثْلُ مَا فِي بَيْضِ النَّعَامِ بَكَارَةٌ مِنَ الْإِبِلِ[1].
“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘It is in the book of Ali (a.s.), that the ransom for breaking the egg of a sandgrouse is one young ewe, just as for the egg of an ostrich the ransom is one young she camel.’”
سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع عَنْ رَجُلٍ قَتَلَ فَرْخاً وَ هُوَ مُحْرِمٌ فِي غَيْرِ الْحَرَمِ فَقَالَ عَلَيْهِ حَمَلٌ وَ لَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ قِيمَةٌ لِأَنَّهُ لَيْسَ فِي الْحَرَمِ.
“I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about a man who in the state of Ihram kills a chick in non-al-Haram (the sacred area). He (the Imam) said, ‘He owes one lamb and he does not have to pay its cost because it is not in al-Haram (the sacred area).”’
سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع- عَنْ قِيمَةِ مَا فِي الْقُمْرِيِّ وَ الدُّبْسِيِّ وَ السُّمَانَى وَ الْعُصْفُورِ وَ الْبُلْبُلِ[3] فَقَالَ قِيمَتُهُ فَإِنْ أَصَابَهُ وَ هُوَ مُحْرِمٌ بِالْحَرَمِ فَقِيمَتَانِ لَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ فِيهِ دَمٌ.
7. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn ‘Isa from Yasin al-Darir from Hariz from those whom he has mentioned from Sulayman ibn Khalid who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah, ‘Alayhi al-Salam, about the cost of turtledove, al-Dubsiy, (a certain bird), quail, sparrow and nightinga
عَلَيْهِ مُدٌّ مِنْ طَعَامٍ لِكُلِّ وَاحِدٍ.
“I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about a man who in the state of Ihram kills a lark, sparrow or al-Sa‘wah (small sparrow). He (the Imam) said, ‘He owes one mud (a certain measurement) of food for each one of them.’”
فِي كِتَابِ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع مَنْ أَصَابَ قَطَاةً أَوْ حَجَلَةً[5] أَوْ دُرَّاجَةً أَوْ نَظِيرَهُنَّ فَعَلَيْهِ دَمٌ.
“Abu Ja‘far (a.s.), has said, ‘It is in the book of Ali (a.s.), ‘If one in the state of Ihram kills a sandgrouse, partridge or francolin or a similar bird he owes an offering animal.”
قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع رَجُلٌ أَصَابَ طَيْرَيْنِ وَاحِدٌ مِنْ حَمَامِ الْحَرَمِ- وَ الْآخَرُ مِنْ حَمَامِ غَيْرِ الْحَرَمِ قَالَ يَشْتَرِي بِقِيمَةِ الَّذِي مِنْ حَمَامِ الْحَرَمِ قَمْحاً[1] فَيُطْعِمُهُ حَمَامَ الْحَرَمِ وَ يَتَصَدَّقُ بِجَزَاءِ الْآخَرِ[2].
“I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about a man who has harmed two birds. One is of the pigeons of al-Haram (the sacred area) and the other is from non-al-Haram (the sacred area). He (the Imam) said, ‘He must buy an amount of wheat which is of equal value to the pigeon of al-Haram and feed it to the pigeons of al-Hara
