خَطَبَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى قَوْمٍ فَقَالُوا مَا تِجَارَتُكَ فَقَالَ أَبِيعُ الدَّوَابَّ فَزَوَّجُوهُ فَإِذَا هُوَ يَبِيعُ السَّنَانِيرَ فَاخْتَصَمُوا إِلَى أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ( عليه السلام ) فَأَجَازَ نِكَاحَهُ فَقَالَ السَّنَانِيرُ دَوَابُّ .


Translation

Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Muhammad Bin Ahmad, from one of his companions, from Al Hassan Bin Al Husayn Al Zareer, from Hammad Bin Isa, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, from his<sup>asws</sup> father<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘A man sent a proposal to a people, so they said, ‘What is your business?’ so he said, ‘I sell the animals’. So they married to him, and it turned out that he was selling the cats. So they brought the dispute to Amir Al-Momineen<sup>asws</sup> and he<sup>asws</sup> allowed his marriage, and he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘The cats are animals’.
