4. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from ’Isma’il ibn Marrar from ‘A’immah, ‘Alayhim al-Salam, who has said the following
“He (the Imam) (a.s.), has said, ‘In the edible animals like camels, cows, sheep and others certain items are not edible. Of such items are genitals, the apparent and unapparent parts, the penis and testicles, the womb which is the place of the development of the young, the spleen because it is blood, the glands with veins and marrow and that which is in the back, the gallbladder, the eyeball, the gland which is situated near the brain, and blood.’”
عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ مَرَّارٍ عَنْهُمْ ( عليهم السلام ) قَالَ
لَا يُؤْكَلُ مِمَّا يَكُونُ فِي الْإِبِلِ وَ الْبَقَرِ وَ الْغَنَمِ وَ غَيْرِ ذَلِكَ مِمَّا لَحْمُهُ حَلَالٌ الْفَرْجُ بِمَا فِيهِ ظَاهِرُهُ وَ بَاطِنُهُ وَ الْقَضِيبُ وَ الْبَيْضَتَانِ وَ الْمَشِيمَةُ وَ هِيَ مَوْضِعُ الْوَلَدِ وَ الطِّحَالُ لِأَنَّهُ دَمٌ وَ الْغُدَدُ مَعَ الْعُرُوقِ وَ الْمُخُّ وَ الَّذِي يَكُونُ فِي الصُّلْبِ وَ الْمَرَارَةُ وَ الْحَدَقُ وَ الْخَرَزَةُ الَّتِي تَكُونُ فِي الدِّمَاغِ وَ الدَّمُ .
