3638. It was narrated from Tha’labah bin Abī Mālik that he heard their elders saying, that a man from the Quraish shared (a water source) with Banū Quraizah, and he referred a dispute concerning Mahzūr – meaning, a stream whose water they shared – to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ passed judgment between them, ruling that the water should reach the ankles, and that (those using) the upper part should not withhold water from (those using) the lower part. (Hasan)

Arabic text

3638 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، عَنِ الْوَلِيدِ يَعْنِي ابْنَ كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي مَالِكِ بْنِ ثَعْلَبَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ثَعْلَبَةَ بْنِ أَبِي مَالِكٍ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ كُبَرَاءَهُمْ، يَذْكُرُونَ أَنَّ رَجُلًا مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ كَانَ لَهُ سَهْمٌ فِي بَنِي قُرَيْظَةَ، فَخَاصَمَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي مَهْزُورٍ يَعْنِي السَّيْلَ الَّذِي يَقْتَسِمُونَ مَاءَهُ: «فَقَضَى بَيْنَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّ الْمَاءَ إِلَى الْكَعْبَيْنِ لَا يَحْبِسُ الْأَعْلَى عَلَى الْأَسْفَلِ»
