Man Lā Yaḥḍuruh al-Faqīh|Volume 2|Book 3|Chapter 2
وَ رَوَى مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ: أَنَّهُ أُتِيَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ فَقِيلَ لَهُ إِنَّ سَبُعاً مِنْ سِبَاعِ اَلطَّيْرِ عَلَى اَلْكَعْبَةِ لَيْسَ يَمُرُّ بِهِ شَيْءٌ مِنْ حَمَامِ اَلْحَرَمِ إِلاَّ ضَرَبَهُ فَقَالَ «اِنْصِبُوا لَهُ وَ اُقْتُلُوهُ فَإِنَّهُ قَدْ أَلْحَدَ ».
Mu'awiyah ibn Ammar narrated: It was brought to the attention of Abu Abdullah عليه السلام that a predatory bird had taken up a position on the Kaaba and was attacking any of the Haram's pigeons that passed by. Imam عليه السلام said: "Set up for it and kill it, for it has committed desecration (ilhad)."
