أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ بُدَيْلِ بْنِ مَيْسَرَةَ عَنْ عَطَائٍ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَعْلَی ابْنِ مُنْيَةَ أَنَّ أَجِيرًا لِيَعْلَی ابْنِ مُنْيَةَ عَضَّ آخَرُ ذِرَاعَهُ فَانْتَزَعَهَا مِنْ فِيهِ فَرَفَعَ ذَلِکَ إِلَی النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَقَدْ سَقَطَتْ ثَنِيَّتُهُ فَأَبْطَلَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَقَالَ أَيَدَعُهَا فِي فِيکَ تَقْضَمُهَا کَقَضْمِ الْفَحْلِ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 4786
It was narrated from Safwan bin Ya’la bin Munyah that a hired man of Ya’la bin Munyah was bitten by another on his forearm, and he pulled it away from his mouth. The matter was referred to the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم as his front tooth had fallen out, but the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم considered it an invalid claim, and said: “No; should he put (his forearm) in your mouth for you to bite it as a stallion bites?” (Sahih)
