2703. Narrated Anas: رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ Ar-Rabi', the daughter of An-Nadr broke the tooth of a girl, and the relatives of Ar-Rabi' requested the girl's relatives to accept the Arsh (compensation for wounds etc.) and forgive (the offender), but they refused. So, they went to the Prophet ﷺ who ordered them to bring about retaliation. Anas bin An-Nadr asked, "O Allāh's Messenger! Will the tooth of Ar-Rabi' be broken? No, by Him Who has sent you with the Truth, her tooth will not be broken." The Prophet ﷺ said, "O Anas! Allāh's Law ordains retaliation." Later the relatives of the girl agreed and forgave her. The Prophet ﷺ said, "There are some of Allāh's slaves who, if they take an oath by Allāh, are responded to by Allāh (i.e., their oath is fulfilled)." Anas added, "The people agreed and accepted the Arsh."

2703 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الأَنْصَارِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي حُمَيْدٌ، أَنَّ أَنَسًا، حَدَّثَهُمْ: أَنَّ الرُّبَيِّعَ وَهِيَ ابْنَةُ النَّضْرِ كَسَرَتْ ثَنِيَّةَ جَارِيَةٍ، فَطَلَبُوا الأَرْشَ، وَطَلَبُوا العَفْوَ، فَأَبَوْا، فَأَتَوُا النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَأَمَرَهُمْ بِالقِصَاصِ، فَقَالَ أَنَسُ بْنُ النَّضْرِ: أَتُكْسَرُ ثَنِيَّةُ الرُّبَيِّعِ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، لاَ وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالحَقِّ، لاَ تُكْسَرُ ثَنِيَّتُهَا، فَقَالَ: «يَا أَنَسُ كِتَابُ اللَّهِ القِصَاصُ»، فَرَضِيَ القَوْمُ وَعَفَوْا، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنَّ مِنْ عِبَادِ اللَّهِ مَنْ لَوْ أَقْسَمَ عَلَى اللَّهِ لَأَبَرَّهُ» زَادَ الفَزَارِيُّ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، فَرَضِيَ القَوْمُ وَقَبِلُوا الأَرْشَ
