حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ عُمَرَ النَّمَرِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ نَضْلَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنِ الْمُغِيَرةِ بْنِ شُعْبَةَ:‏‏‏‏ أَنَّ امْرَأَتَيْنِ كَانَتَا تَحْتَ رَجُلٍ مِنْ هُذَيْلٍ فَضَرَبَتْ إِحْدَاهُمَا الْأُخْرَى بِعَمُودٍ فَقَتَلَتْهَا وَجَنِينَهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَاخْتَصَمُوا إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ أَحَدُ الرَّجُلَيْنِ:‏‏‏‏ كَيْفَ نَدِي مَنْ لَا صَاحَ وَلَا أَكَلَ وَلَا شَرِبَ وَلَا اسْتَهَلَّ ؟ فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَسَجْعٌ كَسَجْعِ الْأَعْرَابِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَضَى فِيهِ بِغُرَّةٍ وَجَعَلَهُ عَلَى عَاقِلَةِ الْمَرْأَةِ .

A man of Hudhail has two wives. One of them struck her fellow-wife with a tent-pole and killed her and her unborn child. They brought the dispute to the Prophet صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم. One of two men said: How can we pay bloodwit for the one who did not make a noise, or ate, nor drank, nor raised his voice ? He (the Prophet) asked: Is it rhymed prose like that of bedouin? He gave judgement that a male or female slave of the best quality should be paid in compensation, and he fixed it to be paid by woman's relatives on her father's side.
