Hadith 866
اُردوEn
وَحَدَّثَنِي، عَنْ وَحَدَّثَنِي، عَنْ مَالِك، أَنَّهُ بَلَغَهُ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَبَّاسٍ، كَانَ يَقُولُ : " مَا اسْتَيْسَرَ مِنَ الْهَدْيِ : شَاةٌ " .
Imam Malik (may Allah have mercy on him) was informed that Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) used to say: By «﴿مَا اسْتَيْسَرَ مِنَ الْهَدْيِ﴾» one goat is meant.
قَالَ مَالِك : وَذَلِكَ أَحَبُّ مَا سَمِعْتُ إِلَيَّ فِي ذَلِكَ، لِأَنَّ اللَّهَ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى يَقُولُ فِي كِتَابِهِ : يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَا تَقْتُلُوا الصَّيْدَ وَأَنْتُمْ حُرُمٌ وَمَنْ قَتَلَهُ مِنْكُمْ مُتَعَمِّدًا فَجَزَاءٌ مِثْلُ مَا قَتَلَ مِنَ النَّعَمِ، يَحْكُمُ بِهِ ذَوَا عَدْلٍ مِنْكُمْ هَدْيًا بَالِغَ الْكَعْبَةِ أَوْ كَفَّارَةٌ طَعَامُ مَسَاكِينَ، أَوْ عَدْلُ ذَلِكَ صِيَامًا، فَمِمَّا يُحْكَمُ بِهِ فِي الْهَدْيِ شَاةٌ، وَقَدْ سَمَّاهَا اللَّهُ هَدْيًا، وَذَلِكَ الَّذِي لَا اخْتِلَافَ فِيهِ عِنْدَنَا، وَكَيْفَ يَشُكُّ أَحَدٌ فِي ذَلِكَ ؟ وَكُلُّ شَيْءٍ لَا يَبْلُغُ أَنْ يُحْكَمَ فِيهِ بِبَعِيرٍ أَوْ بَقَرَةٍ، فَالْحُكْمُ فِيهِ شَاةٌ، وَمَا لَا يَبْلُغُ أَنْ يُحْكَمَ فِيهِ بِشَاةٍ فَهُوَ كَفَّارَةٌ مِنْ صِيَامٍ، أَوْ إِطْعَامِ مَسَاكِينَ
Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said that I like this narration very much, because Allah, Glorious and Exalted is He, says in His Book: "O you who believe! Do not kill game while you are in the state of Ihram, and whoever among you kills it intentionally, then its recompense is an animal like the one he killed, as judged by two just men among you, as an offering delivered to the Ka'bah, or as an expiation, feeding the poor, or its equivalent in fasting, so that he may taste the consequence of his deed." So sometimes the compensation for an animal is also a goat, and Allah, Glorious and Exalted is He, has called it a sacrificial offering (hady). There is no difference of opinion among us in this matter, and how could anyone doubt it, because for an animal that is not equal to a camel or a cow, its compensation will only be a goat, and if it is less than a goat, then there will be expiation, either by fasting or by feeding the poor.
