English translation

[4370] 21 - (1673) It was narrated from 'Imrân bin Ḥuṣain that a man bit the hand of another man, who pulled his hand away and one or more of his incisors fell out. He referred the matter to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ and the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "What do you want me to do? Do you want me to order him to put his hand in your mouth so that you can bite it like a male camel? Give him your hand so that he can bite it, then you can pull it away"

Arabic text

21 - (1673) حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ النَّوْفَلِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا قُرَيْشُ بْنُ أَنَسٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَوْنٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِيرِينَ، عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ، أَنَّ رَجُلًا عَضَّ يَدَ رَجُلٍ، فَانْتَزَعَ يَدَهُ، فَسَقَطَتْ ثَنِيَّتُهُ - أَوْ ثَنَايَاهُ -، فَاسْتَعْدَى رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَا تَأْمُرُنِي؟ تَأْمُرُنِي أَنْ آمُرَهُ أَنْ يَدَعَ يَدَهُ فِي فِيكَ تَقْضَمُهَا كَمَا يَقْضَمُ الْفَحْلُ؟ ادْفَعْ يَدَكَ حَتَّى يَعَضَّهَا، ثُمَّ انْتَزِعْهَا؟»
