Hadith.3431 - Al-Sakuni narrated from Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) from his father, Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as), from his forefathers, from Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (as): He (as) was asked about a man who saw a bird and followed it until it landed on a tree. Then another man came and took it. Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (as) said
"What the eye sees belongs to it, and what the hand takes belongs to it."
3431 - رَوَى اَلسَّكُونِيُّ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ آبَائِهِ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ : أَنَّهُ سُئِلَ عَنْ رَجُلٍ أَبْصَرَ طَيْراً فَتَبِعَهُ حَتَّى وَقَعَ عَلَى شَجَرَةٍ فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ آخَرُ فَأَخَذَهُ فَقَالَ
"لِلْعَيْنِ مَا رَأَتْ وَ لِلْيَدِ مَا أَخَذَتْ ".
