أَخْبَرَنَا عِمْرَانُ بْنُ بَکَّارٍ قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ عَنْ عَطَائِ بْنِ أَبِي رَبَاحٍ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ عَمَّيْهِ سَلَمَةَ وَيَعْلَی ابْنَيْ أُمَيَّةَ قَالَا خَرَجْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي غَزْوَةِ تَبُوکَ وَمَعَنَا صَاحِبٌ لَنَا فَقَاتَلَ رَجُلًا مِنْ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَعَضَّ الرَّجُلُ ذِرَاعَهُ فَجَذَبَهَا مِنْ فِيهِ فَطَرَحَ ثَنِيَّتَهُ فَأَتَی الرَّجُلُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَلْتَمِسُ الْعَقْلَ فَقَالَ يَنْطَلِقُ أَحَدُکُمْ إِلَی أَخِيهِ فَيَعَضُّهُ کَعَضِيضِ الْفَحْلِ ثُمَّ يَأْتِي يَطْلُبُ الْعَقْلَ لَا عَقْلَ لَهَا فَأَبْطَلَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 4780
It was narrated from Safwan bin ‘Abdullah that his two paternal uncles, Salamah and Ya’la, the Sons of Umayyah, said: “We went out with the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم on the campaign of Tabuk, and there was a friend of ours with us, who fought with a man from among the Muslims. The man bit him on the forearm, so he pulled it away from his mouth and a tooth fell out. The man came to the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم seeking blood money, but he said: “Would one of you go to his brother and bite him like a stallion bites, then come and demand blood money? There is no blood money for that.” And the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم juddged it to be invalid. (Hasan)
