نا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ ، نا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ بَزِيعٍ ، نا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ ، نا أَبُو مَرْيَمَ ، حَدَّثَنِي الأَجْلَحُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ ، قَالَ : " قَضَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الظَّبْيِ شَاةً ، وَفِي الضَّبُعِ كَبْشًا ، وَفِي الأَرْنَبِ عَنَاقًا ، وَفِي الْيَرْبُوعِ جَفْرَةً " . فَقُلْتُ لابْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ : وَمَا الْجَفْرَةُ ؟ قَالَ : الَّتِي قَدْ فُطِمَتْ وَرَعَتْ.
Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave this verdict regarding the deer: "A goat must be sacrificed." Regarding the monitor lizard, he gave the verdict of sacrificing a ram; regarding the rabbit, he gave the verdict of sacrificing a kid goat; and regarding the jerboa, he gave the verdict of sacrificing a kid goat. The narrator says: I asked Ibn Zubair: What is meant by the word "jafrah"? He replied: The young one whose milk has been weaned and who is able to walk.
