۞
427. Muḥammad b. Abī ʿAbd Allāh, from Muḥammad b. al-Ḥusayn, from Muḥammad b. Sinān, from Ismāʿīl al-Juʿfī, ʿAbd al-Karīm b. ʿAmr, and ʿAbd al-Ḥamīd b. Abī Daylam, from Abū ʿAbdillāh (AS), who said
Nūḥ (AS) carried in the ark the eight pairs whic Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, mentioned: "Eight pairs—from the sheep, two; and from the goats, two; and from the camels, two; and from the cows, two." (6:143-144) From the sheep, there were two pairs: one was domesticated, raised by people, and the other was wild sheep that live in the mountains and whose hunting was made lawful for them. From the goats, two pairs: one was domesticated, raised by people, and the other was the wild gazelle that lives in the wilderness. From the camels, two pairs: the bakhātī (Bactrian camels) and the ʿirāb (Arabian camels). From the cows, two pairs: one domesticated by people, and the other was wild cows. Every kind of pure bird, whether wild or domesticated, was also carried, and then the earth was flooded.
