Chapter on Marking and Garlanding (sacrificial Animals)
رَوَى عَمْرُو بْنُ شَمِرٍ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ قَالَ: "إِنَّمَا اسْتَحْسَنُوا إِشْعَارَ الْبُدْنِ لِأَنَّ أَوَّلَ قَطْرَةٍ تَقْطُرُ مِنْ دَمِهَا يَغْفِرُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَهُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ."
Amr ibn Shumr narrated from Jabir, from Abu Ja'far عليه السلام, who said: "They deemed the marking of the sacrificial animals commendable because with the first drop of its blood that falls, Allah سبحانه وتعالى, the Almighty, forgives the one offering it."
