And from him...

And from him, from Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Muhammad Bin Al-Husayn, from Abdul Rahman Bin Abu Hashim, from Salim Bin Abu Salama, ‘From Abu Abdullah -asws , he (the narrator) said, ‘He -asws was asked about the dogs. He -asws said: ‘Every black one is a beast, and every red one is a beast, and every white one is a beast, for that (reason) it is a creature from the Jinn, and whatever was spotted, so it would be a morphed one from the Jinn and the humans’’.

[24] الْإِخْتِصَاصُ، عَنِ الْمُعَلَّى بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِنَا يَرْفَعُهُ إِلَى أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ خَلَقَ الْمَلَائِكَةَ مِنْ أَنْوَارٍ وَ خَلَقَ الْجَانَّ مِنْ نَارٍ وَ خَلَقَ الْجِنَّ صِنْفاً مِنَ الْجَانِّ مِنَ الرِّيحِ وَ خَلَقَ الْجِنَّ صِنْفاً مِنَ الْجِنِّ مِنَ الْمَاءِ.
