2657. It was narrated from 'Imrān bin Husain that a man bit another man on his forearm; he pulled his arm away and the man's tooth fell out. The matter was referred to the Prophet ﷺ, who invalidated it and said: 'Would one of you bite (another) like a stallion?''' (Sahih)

Arabic text

2657 - حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ زُرَارَةَ بْنِ أَوْفَى، عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ، أَنَّ رَجُلًا عَضَّ رَجُلًا عَلَى ذِرَاعِهِ فَنَزَعَ يَدَهُ فَوَقَعَتْ ثَنِيَّتَاهُ، فَرُفِعَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَبْطَلَهُمَا وَقَالَ: «يَقْضَمُ أَحَدُكُمْ كَمَا يَقْضَمُ الْفَحْلُ» بَابُ لَا يُقْتَلُ مُؤْمِنٌ بِكَافِرٍ

Everyone has the right to defend himself. If someone is hurt during an attack, the defender will not pay any penalty.
