أُتِيَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ( عليه السلام ) بِرَجُلٍ نَصْرَانِيٍّ كَانَ أَسْلَمَ وَ مَعَهُ خِنْزِيرٌ قَدْ شَوَاهُ وَ أَدْرَجَهُ بِرَيْحَانٍ قَالَ مَا حَمَلَكَ عَلَى هَذَا قَالَ الرَّجُلُ مَرِضْتُ فَقَرِمْتُ إِلَى اللَّحْمِ فَقَالَ أَيْنَ أَنْتَ مِنْ لَحْمِ الْمَعْزِ وَ كَانَ خَلَفاً مِنْهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَوْ أَنَّكَ أَكَلْتَهُ لَأَقَمْتُ عَلَيْكَ الْحَدَّ وَ لَكِنْ سَأَضْرِبُكَ ضَرْباً فَلَا تَعُدْ فَضَرَبَهُ حَتَّى شَغَرَ بِبَوْلِهِ .


Translation

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Al Hajjal, from Ali Bin Muhammad Bin Abdul Rahman, from Al Nowfaly, from Al Sakuny, Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> has said: ‘They came to Amir Al-Momineen<sup>asws</sup> with a Christian man who had become a Muslim, and with him was a pig which he had roasted, and seasoned it with basil. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘What carried you upon that?’ The man said, ‘I was sick, so I longed for the meat’. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Where are you from the meat of the goat?’ And it was following him. Then he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘If you were to eat it, I<sup>asws</sup> will establish the Penalty (<span class="iTxt">Hadd</span>) upon you, but I<sup>asws</sup> would be hitting you with a strike. So he<sup>asws</sup> hit him until his urine trickled out’.
