ahmad:20582Muḥammad b. Jaʿfar > Saʿīd > Maṭar > Muʿāwiyah b. Qurrah > a man from al-Anṣār

[Machine] That a man stepped on his camel and it flushed a pregnant female camel, and he broke its egg. So he went to Ali and asked him about that. Ali said to him, "Upon you is the responsibility of every egg, the fetus of a female camel or a male camel. So he went to the Messenger of Allah and mentioned that to him. The Messenger of Allah said, "Ali has said what he heard, but come closer to the concession. Upon you is the responsibility of fasting or feeding a poor person for every egg."  

أحمد:٢٠٥٨٢حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ عَنْ مَطَرٍ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ قُرَّةَ عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ

أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَوْطَأَ بَعِيرَهُ أُدْحِيَّ نَعَامٍ وَهُوَ مُحْرِمٌ فَكَسَرَ بَيْضَهَا فَانْطَلَقَ إِلَى عَلِيٍّ فَسَأَلَهُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ لَهُ عَلِيٌّ عَلَيْكَ بِكُلِّ بَيْضَةٍ جَنِينُ نَاقَةٍ أَوْ ضِرَابُ نَاقَةٍ فَانْطَلَقَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قَدْ قَالَ عَلِيٌّ بِمَا سَمِعْتَ وَلَكِنْ هَلُمَّ إِلَى الرُّخْصَةِ عَلَيْكَ بِكُلِّ بَيْضَةٍ صَوْمٌ أَوْ إِطْعَامُ مِسْكِينٍ
