Instigating Animals against each other

عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ أَبَانِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ عَنْ أَبِي الْعَبَّاسِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( صلوات الله عليه ) قَالَ سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ التَّحْرِيشِ بَيْنَ الْبَهَائِمِ فَقَالَ كُلُّهُ مَكْرُوهٌ إِلَّا الْكَلْبَ .
1. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Ali ibn al-Hakam from Aban ibn ‘Uthman from abu al-‘Abbas who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘ Abd Allah عليه السلام, about instigating animals against each other. He (the Imam) said, ‘All of it is detestable except dogs.’”
