رَوَى اِبْنُ مُسْكَانَ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: «لاَ يُذْبَحُ فِي اَلْحَرَمِ إِلاَّ اَلْإِبِلُ وَ اَلْبَقَرُ وَ اَلْغَنَمُ وَ اَلدَّجَاجُ ».
Ibn Muskan narrated from Abu Basir, from Abu Abdullah عليه السلام, who said: "It is not permissible to slaughter in the Haram except for camels, cows, sheep, and chickens."

وَ سَأَلَهُ مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ: عَنْ دَجَاجِ اَلْحَبَشِ فَقَالَ «لَيْسَ مِنَ اَلصَّيْدِ إِنَّمَا اَلطَّيْرُ مَا طَارَ بَيْنَ اَلسَّمَاءِ وَ اَلْأَرْضِ وَ صَفَّ ».
Mu'awiya ibn Ammar asked him about Ethiopian chickens. Imam عليه السلام replied: "It is not considered part of the game (ṣayd); game birds are those that fly between the sky and the earth and flap their wings."
  • Shaykh Baqir al-Behbudi
    Ṣaḥīḥ al-Faqīh, p. 120
وَ قَالَ جَمِيلُ بْنُ دَرَّاجٍ وَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ: سُئِلَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلدَّجَاجِ اَلسِّنْدِيِّ يُخْرَجُ بِهِ مِنَ اَلْحَرَمِ فَقَالَ «نَعَمْ لِأَنَّهَا لاَ تَسْتَقِلُّ بِالطَّيَرَانِ. وَ فِي خَبَرٍ آخَرَ: «أَنَّهَا تَدُفُّ دَفِيفاً ».
Jamil ibn Darraj and Muhammad ibn Muslim reported that Abu Abdullah عليه السلام was asked about Sindhi chickens being taken out of the Haram. Imam عليه السلام said: "Yes, because they cannot fly independently." In another narration: "They only flutter lightly."
  • Shaykh Baqir al-Behbudi
    Ṣaḥīḥ al-Faqīh, p. 121
وَ سَأَلَهُ اَلْحَسَنُ بْنُ اَلصَّيْقَلِ: عَنْ دَجَاجِ مَكَّةَ وَ طَيْرِهَا فَقَالَ «مَا لَمْ يَصُفَّ فَكُلْهُ وَ مَا كَانَ يَصُفُّ فَخَلِّ سَبِيلَهُ.
Al-Hasan ibn al-Sayqal asked Imam عليه السلام about the chickens and birds of Mecca. Imam عليه السلام said: "What does not glide (in flight), you may eat it, and what glides, let it go."
  • Shaykh Baqir al-Behbudi
    Ṣaḥīḥ al-Faqīh, p. 121
وَ سُئِلَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: عَنْ رَجُلٍ أَدْخَلَ فَهْدَهُ إِلَى اَلْحَرَمِ أَ لَهُ أَنْ يُخْرِجَهُ فَقَالَ «هُوَ سَبُعٌ فَكُلُّ مَا أَدْخَلْتَ مِنَ اَلسَّبُعِ اَلْحَرَمَ أَسِيراً فَلَكَ أَنْ تُخْرِجَهُ.
Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام was asked about a man who brought his cheetah into the sacred sanctuary (Al-Haram). Is he allowed to take it out? Imam عليه السلام replied: "It is a predator. Whatever predator you bring into the sanctuary as a captive, you are allowed to take it out."
  • Shaykh Baqir al-Behbudi
    Ṣaḥīḥ al-Faqīh
وَ رَوَى عَنْهُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: «لاَ بَأْسَ بِقَتْلِ اَلنَّمْلِ وَ اَلْبَقِّ فِي اَلْحَرَمِ » وَ قَالَ «لاَ بَأْسَ بِقَتْلِ اَلْقَمْلَةِ فِي اَلْحَرَمِ وَ غَيْرِهِ».
Muawiya ibn Ammar narrated from Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام that he said: "There is no harm in killing ants and bedbugs in the sacred sanctuary (Al-Haram)." Imam عليه السلام also said: "There is no harm in killing lice both within the sanctuary and outside of it."

وَ رَوَى عَبْدُ اَللَّهِ بْنُ سِنَانٍ عَنْهُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: «كُلُّ مَا لَمْ يَصُفَّ مِنَ اَلطَّيْرِ فَهُوَ بِمَنْزِلَةِ اَلدَّجَاجِ.
Abdullah ibn Sinan narrated from Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام that he said: "Any bird that does not glide in flight is regarded as being like domesticated chickens."
