[4369] 20 - (1674) It was narrated from Safwân bin Ya'la that a servant of Ya'la bin Munyah bit another man on the arm, and he pulled it away and his incisor fell out. The matter was referred to the Prophet ﷺ who dismissed the claim and said: "Did you want to bite him as a male camel bites?"

Arabic text

20 - (1674) حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو غَسَّانَ الْمِسْمَعِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ بُدَيْلٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ أَبِي رَبَاحٍ، عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَعْلَى، أَنَّ أَجِيرًا لِيَعْلَى بْنِ مُنْيَةَ عَضَّ رَجُلٌ ذِرَاعَهُ، فَجَذَبَهَا فَسَقَطَتْ ثَنِيَّتُهُ، فَرُفِعَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَأَبْطَلَهَا، وَقَالَ: «أَرَدْتَ أَنْ تَقْضَمَهَا كَمَا يَقْضَمُ الْفَحْلُ؟»
