2656. It was narrated that Ya'la and Salamah the sons of Umayyah said: "We went out with the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ on the military expedition of Tabuk, and with us was a friend of ours. He fought with another man while we were on the road. The man bit the hand of his opponent, who pulled away his hand and the man's tooth fell out. He came to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ demanding compensatory money for his tooth, and the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'Would anyone of you go and bite his brother like a stallion, then come demanding compensatory money? There is no compensatory money for this.'" Hence, the Messenger of Allāh invalidated it (i.e. compensatory money in such a case). (Hasan)

2656 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحِيمِ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ عَمَّيْهِ يَعْلَى وَسَلَمَةَ ابْنَيْ أُمَيَّةَ قَالَا: خَرَجْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي غَزْوَةِ تَبُوكَ وَمَعَنَا صَاحِبٌ لَنَا، فَاقْتَتَلَ هُوَ وَرَجُلٌ آخَرُ وَنَحْنُ بِالطَّرِيقِ، قَالَ: فَعَضَّ الرَّجُلُ يَدَ صَاحِبِهِ، فَجَذَبَ صَاحِبُهُ يَدَهُ مِنْ فِيهِ، فَطَرَحَ ثَنِيَّتَهُ، فَأَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَلْتَمِسُ عَقْلَ ثَنِيَّتِهِ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «يَعْمِدُ أَحَدُكُمْ إِلَى أَخِيهِ فَيَعَضُّهُ كَعِضَاضِ الْفَحْلِ، ثُمَّ يَأْتِي يَلْتَمِسُ الْعَقْلَ لَا عَقْلَ لَهَا» . قَالَ: فَأَبْطَلَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ
