3. A number of our people have narrated from, Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Khalid, from al-Qasim ibn Yahya from his grandfather al- Hassan ibn Rashid, from Ya’qub ibn Ja’far ibn Ibrahim al-Ja’fariy who has said the following:

“Once, the beauty of peacock was mentioned before abu al-Hassan , who said, ‘It cannot have any greater beauty over the white rooster.’ He (the narrator) has said, ‘I heard him (the Imam) saying, ‘The voice of rooster is better than the voice of peacock. It is of greater blessing because it wakes you up for the time of Salat (prayer). The peacock says, ‘Woe is me.’ It says so because of the mistake that it fell in.’”
