خَرَجْنَا سِتَّةَ نَفَرٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا إِلَى مَكَّةَ فَأَوْقَدْنَا نَاراً عَظِيمَةً فِي بَعْضِ الْمَنَازِلِ أَرَدْنَا أَنْ نَطْرَحَ عَلَيْهَا لَحْماً ذَكِيّاً وَ كُنَّا مُحْرِمِينَ فَمَرَّ بِنَا طَائِرٌ صَافٌّ قَالَ حَمَامَةٌ أَوْ شِبْهُهَا فَأَحْرَقَتْ جَنَاحَهُ فَسَقَطَ فِي النَّارِ فَمَاتَ فَاغْتَمَمْنَا لِذَلِكَ فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَى أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) بِمَكَّةَ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ وَ سَأَلْتُهُ فَقَالَ عَلَيْكُمْ فِدَاءٌ وَاحِدٌ دَمُ شَاةٍ تَشْتَرِكُونَ فِيهِ جَمِيعاً لِأَنَّ ذَلِكَ كَانَ مِنْكُمْ عَلَى غَيْرِ تَعَمُّدٍ وَ لَوْ كَانَ ذَلِكَ مِنْكُمْ تَعَمُّداً لِيَقَعَ فِيهَا الصَّيْدُ فَوَقَعَ أَلْزَمْتُ كُلَّ رَجُلٍ مِنْكُمْ دَمَ شَاةٍ قَالَ أَبُو وَلَّادٍ وَ كَانَ ذَلِكَ مِنَّا قَبْلَ أَنْ نَدْخُلَ الْحَرَمَ .
Translation
A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Al Hassan Bin Mahboub, from Abu Wallad Al Hannat who said, ‘We went out, being six of us from our companions, to Makkah. So we ignited a great fire in one of the encampment intending to grill pure meat upon it, and we were in <span class="iTxt">Ihraam</span>. So a bird passed by us flapping. It was either a dove or it’s like. So its wings got burnt, and it fell into the fire, so it died. So we were gloomy due to that. So I went over to Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> in Makkah, and informed him<sup>asws</sup>, and asked him<sup>asws</sup>. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Upon you all is one ransom, blood of a sheep. You can all participate in it, because that was from you upon other than deliberation; and had that been deliberate from you in order to catch they prey, so it fell, that would have necessitated upon each one of you, blood of a sheep’. Abu Wallad said, ‘And that was from us before we had entered the <span class="iTxt">Harram</span>’.
