قَالَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ( عليه السلام ) النَّاقَةُ الْجَلَّالَةُ لَا يُؤْكَلُ لَحْمُهَا وَ لَا يُشْرَبُ لَبَنُهَا حَتَّى تُغَذَّى أَرْبَعِينَ يَوْماً وَ الْبَقَرَةُ الْجَلَّالَةُ لَا يُؤْكَلُ لَحْمُهَا وَ لَا يُشْرَبُ لَبَنُهَا حَتَّى تُغَذَّى ثَلَاثِينَ يَوْماً وَ الشَّاةُ الْجَلَّالَةُ لَا يُؤْكَلُ لَحْمُهَا وَ لَا يُشْرَبُ لَبَنُهَا حَتَّى تُغَذَّى عَشَرَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَ الْبَطَّةُ الْجَلَّالَةُ لَا يُؤْكَلُ لَحْمُهَا حَتَّى تُرْبَطَ خَمْسَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَ الدَّجَاجَةُ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ .
Translation
A number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Muhammad Bin Al Hassan Bin Shamoun, from Abdullah Bin Abdul Rahman, from Misma’a, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘Amir Al-Momineen<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘The dung-eating she-camel, do not eat its meat, nor drink its milk until you feed it for forty days; and the dung-eating cow, not eat from its meat, and do not drink from its milk until you feed it for thirty days; and the dung-eating sheep, do not eat its meat, and do not drink its milk until you feed it for ten days; and the dung-eating duck, do not eat its meat until you restrain it for five days; and the (dung-eating) chicken for three days’.
