حَدَّثَنَا زِيَادُ بْنُ أَيُّوبَ أَخْبَرَنَا هُشَيْمٌ حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ وَعَبْدُ الْمَلِکِ عَنْ عَطَائٍ عَنْ يَعْلَی بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ بِهَذَا زَادَ ثُمَّ قَالَ يَعْنِي النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِلْعَاضِّ إِنْ شِئْتَ أَنْ تُمَکِّنَهُ مِنْ يَدِکَ فَيَعَضُّهَا ثُمَّ تَنْزِعُهَا مِنْ فِيهِ وَأَبْطَلَ دِيَةَ أَسْنَانِهِ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 4585
The tradition mentioned above has also been transmitted by Yala bin Umayyah through a different chain of narrators. This version has: The Prophet ﷺ said to the man bit him: If you wish that you give him control over your hand and he bites it, and then you drive it away from his mouth (you may do it). He imposed no retaliation for his teeth.
