English translation

[4371] 22 - (1674) It was narrated from Ṣafwân bin Ya'la bin Munyah that his father said: "A man came to the Prophet ﷺ. He had bitten a man's hand, who had pulled his hand away and his incisors had fallen out." He said: "The Prophet ﷺ dismissed the claim and said: 'Did you want to bite him as a camel bites?'"

Arabic text

22 - (1674) حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ بْنُ فَرُّوخَ، حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ، حَدَّثَنَا عَطَاءٌ، عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَعْلَى بْنِ مُنْيَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَجُلٌ وَقَدْ عَضَّ يَدَ رَجُلٍ، فَانْتَزَعَ يَدَهُ، فَسَقَطَتْ ثَنِيَّتَاهُ - يَعْنِي الَّذِي عَضَّهُ - قَالَ: فَأَبْطَلَهَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَقَالَ: «أَرَدْتَ أَنْ تَقْضَمَهُ كَمَا يَقْضَمُ الْفَحْلُ؟»
