: سَأَلَهُ رَجُلٌ وَ أَنَا عِنْدَهُ عَنْ قَطْعِ أَلَيَاتِ اَلْغَنَمِ قَالَ "لاَ بَأْسَ بِقَطْعِهَا إِذَا كُنْتَ إِنَّمَا تُصْلِحُ بِهِ مَالَكَ" ثُمَّ قَالَ "إِنَّ فِي كِتَابِ عَلِيٍّ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ "أَنَّ مَا قُطِعَ مِنْهَا مَيْتٌ لاَ يُنْتَفَعُ بِهِ " ".
Translation
Hadith.4176 - Al-Kahili narrated from Abu Abdillah (as) that a man asked him a question while I was present about cutting the tails of sheep. Imam (as) said: "There is no harm in cutting them if you are doing so to improve your wealth." Then Imam (as) said: "Indeed, in the book of Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (as), it is written: 'Whatever is cut from a living animal is considered dead and should not be used.'"
