Lamb and Young Goats Fed with the Milk of Pigs

حُمَيْدُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ النَّهِيكِيِّ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ بِشْرِ بْنِ مَسْلَمَةَ عَنْ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ الرِّضَا ( عليه السلام ) فِي جَدْيٍ يَرْضِعُ مِنْ خِنْزِيرَةٍ ثُمَّ ضَرَبَ فِي الْغَنَمِ قَالَ هُوَ بِمَنْزِلَةِ الْجُبُنِّ فَمَا عَرَفْتَ بِأَنَّهُ ضَرَبَهُ فَلَا تَأْكُلْهُ وَ مَا لَمْ تَعْرِفْهُ فَكُلْهُ .
2. Humayd ibn Ziyad has narrated from ‘Abd Allah ibn Ahmad al-Nuhaykiy from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Bishr ibn Muslimah who has said the following: “About the case of a young goat that is fed with the milk of a pig and it is used to impregnate the flock of sheep, abu al-Hassan, al-Rida’ عليه السلام, has said, ‘It is like cheese. If you recognize its offspring exactly, then do not eat; but you can eat if you cannot recognize it.’”
