Tahdhīb al-Aḥkām|Volume 1|Book 1|Chapter 22
الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ بُكَيْرٍ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ عَنْ أَحَدِهِمَا عَلَيْهِمَا السَّلَامُ فِي أَبْوَالِ الدَّوَابِّ تُصِيبُ الثَّوْبَ، فَكَرِهَهُ. فَقُلْتُ: أَلَيْسَ لُحُومُهَا حَلَالًا؟ فَقَالَ: بَلَى، وَلَكِنْ لَيْسَ مِمَّا جَعَلَهُ اللهُ لِلْأَكْلِ.
Al-Husayn ibn Sa’id, from Al-Qasim ibn ‘Urwah, from Ibn Bukayr, from Zurarah, narrated from one of the Imams عليه السلام:
Imam عليه السلام was asked regarding the urine of animals that contaminates clothing. Imam عليه السلام disliked it. I said: "Isn’t their meat permissible to eat?" Imam عليه السلام said: "Yes, but it (urine) is not among what Allah سبحانه وتعالى has made for consumption."
