English translation

4590. It was narrated from Imrān bin Ḥuṣain that the slave of some poor people cut off the ear of the slave of some rich people. His masters came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: "O Messenger of Allāh, we are poor people." So he did not impose any penalty on him. (Da'if)

Arabic text

4590 - حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي نَضْرَةَ، عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ، أَنَّ غُلَامًا، لِأُنَاسٍ فُقَرَاءَ قَطَعَ أُذُنَ غُلَامٍ لِأُنَاسٍ أَغْنِيَاءَ، فَأَتَى أَهْلُهُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنَّا أُنَاسٌ فُقَرَاءُ، «فَلَمْ يَجْعَلْ عَلَيْهِ شَيْئًا»
