2.135

I said to Shaykh Mubārak: Is that because sheep are few? He said: No, it is custom; otherwise the sheep in every village of India cannot be counted, by the many thousands. Chickens are four choice birds for one Egyptian dirham, while pigeons, sparrows and other kinds of birds are of the most trifling price.
