LessonsBab Jinayat al-Muhrim — Hunting Penalties, Valuation and Liability (Part IV)Quiz

فَفِي الظَّبْيِ شَاةٌ، وَفِي الضَّبُعِ شَاةٌ، وَفِي الْأَرْنَبِ عَنَاقٌ، وَفِي النَّعَامَةِ بَدَنَةٌ، وَفِي الْيَرْبُوعِ جَفْرَةٌ.
Translation: Thus the text lists a sheep/goat for an antelope, a sheep/goat for a hyena, a young goat for a hare, a large sacrificial animal for an ostrich, and a young goat for a jerboa.

Zaby is an antelope/gazelle; dabuʿ a hyena; arnab a hare; naʿamah an ostrich; and yarbuʿ a jerboa.

Anaq and jafrah are age-specific young-goat terms and should not be blurred into an ordinary adult goat. These are examples under Muhammad’s position.
