9ـ سَهْلُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ رِئَابٍ عَنْ مِسْمَعِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ مِسْمَعِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ الْيَرْبُوعُ وَالْقُنْفُذُ وَالضَّبُّ إِذَا أَصَابَهُ الْمُحْرِمُ فَعَلَيْهِ جَدْيٌ وَالْجَدْيُ خَيْرٌ مِنْهُ وَإِنَّمَا جُعِلَ عَلَيْهِ هَذَا كَيْ يَنْكُلَ عَنْ صَيْدِ غَيْرِهِ.

9. Sahl ibn Ziyad has narrated from al-Hassan ibn Mahbub from ibn Ri’ab from Misma’ ibn ‘Abd al-Malik from abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), and Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Ahmad ibn Ali from Misma’ who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘The expiation for killing a Jerboa, a hedgehog and lizard is one goat. The goat is better but it is made obligatory on him as penalty for hunting.’”
