Pearl of Wisdom
in answer to a question about games of chance when the verse: indeed wine, gambling ... was revealed, said, 'It is anything that can be gambled with, even dice or walnuts.' He was asked, 'So what is the dedication to idols (an ab)?' He said, 'What they sacrificed for their gods.' He was then asked, 'And what is divining with arrows?' He said, 'Their arrow shafts that they swear by.'
Prophet Muhammad al-Mustafa [sawa] al-Kafi, v. 5, p. 123, no. 2
