2. Muhammad b. Yahya has narrated from Ahmad b. Muhammad from Muhammad b. Isma‘il from al-Fadl b. Shadhan from Abul Sabbah al-Kinaniy who has said the following
“Abu Abdillah (as), has said, ‘For killing pigeons and its like in the state of Ihram, the ransom is one sheep, and for chicks it is one lamb for each.’ He (the Imam) was asked about a man who steps on the eggs of ostrich and breaks it, the Imam said, ‘Ali (as), issued a judgment that said, “He must send male camel on a female camel (i.e. to breed) to make an equal number of eggs affected and the mature offspring is sent as an offering for the Ka'aba."
2- مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْفُضَيْلِ عَنْ أَبِي الصَّبَّاحِ الْكِنَانِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ
فِي الْحَمَامَةِ وَأَشْبَاهِهَا إِذَا قَتَلَهَا الْمُحْرِمُ شَاةٌ وَإِنْ كَانَ فِرَاخاً فَعَدْلُهَا مِنَ الْحُمْلانِ وَقَالَ فِي رَجُلٍ وَطِىَ بَيْضَ نَعَامَةٍ فَفَدَغَهَا وَهُوَ مُحْرِمٌ فَقَالَ قَضَى فِيهِ عَلِيٌّ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) أَنْ يُرْسِلَ الْفَحْلَ عَلَى مِثْلِ عَدَدِ الْبَيْضِ مِنَ الإِبِلِ فَمَا لَقِحَ وَسَلِمَ حَتَّى يُنْتَجَ كَانَ النِّتَاجُ هَدْياً بَالِغَ الْكَعْبَةِ.
