Hadith 1483
۞
Hadith.3049 - It is narrated from Dawud Al-Raqqi who said
One of the Kharijites asked me about the verse from the Book of Allah (swt), the Exalted,
"Eight pairs: of sheep two, and of goats two... and of camels two, and of oxen two" (Surah Al-An‘am: 143–144).
He asked: "What has Allah (swt) permitted from these, and what has He forbidden?"
I did not have an answer at that time, so I went to Abu Abdullah (as) while I was on pilgrimage and informed him of the matter.
Imam (as) said: "Indeed, Allah (swt), the Blessed and Exalted, has permitted in the sacrifice at Mina the domesticated sheep and goats, and He has forbidden the wild (mountainous) species of them. As for His saying, 'And of camels two, and of oxen two,' Allah (swt), the Blessed and Exalted, has permitted the Arabian camels for sacrifice at Mina, but He has forbidden the imported Bactrian camels. He has permitted domesticated cattle to be sacrificed, but He has forbidden the wild species of them."
So I returned to the man and informed him of this response, to which he replied:
"This is something carried by the camels from the Hijaz."
