Shi'a Fatwa: Chicken is Like Pork and is Haram!

According to the Shi'a, eating chicken is haram!

الدجاج خنزير الطير
"The chicken is the swine of birds".
According to another narration, Sayedina Ali (peace be upon him) answered someone about the meat of chicken being pure, he said:
كلا إن ذلك خنازير الطير
"No (it is not pure), they are the swines of the birds"

Reference: Wasael ash-Shi'a, vol. 25, p. 46, #31128-31129

However, on the very next page is a narration where the Shi'a admit that the Prophet (peace be upon him) used to eat chicken meat!
