قَالَ مَالِكٌ: وَالسَّخْلَةُ الصَّغِيرَةُ حِينَ تُنْتَجُ. وَالرُّبَّى الَّتِي قَدْ وَضَعَتْ فَهِيَ تُرَبِّي وَلَدَهَا ، وَالْمَاخِضُ هِيَ الْحَامِلُ. وَالْأَكُولَةُ هِيَ شَاةُ اللَّحْمِ الَّتِي تُسَمَّنُ لِتُؤْكَلَ
And not the goat that is nursing its kid, nor the pregnant one, nor the male, and we take a goat of one or two years that is average—not a kid, nor old, nor very excellent.
