حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا الْمُعْتَمِرُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ الطَّوِيلِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ كَسَرَتِ الرُّبَيِّعُ أُخْتُ أَنَسِ بْنِ النَّضْرِ ثَنِيَّةَ امْرَأَةٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَتَوْا النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَضَى بِكِتَابِ اللَّهِ الْقِصَاصَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ أَنَسُ بْنُ النَّضْرِ:‏‏‏‏ وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ لَا تُكْسَرُ ثَنِيَّتُهَا الْيَوْمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ يَا أَنَسُ كِتَابُ اللَّهِ الْقِصَاصُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَرَضُوا بِأَرْشٍ أَخَذُوهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَعَجِبَ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّ مِنْ عِبَادِ اللَّهِ مَنْ لَوْ أَقْسَمَ عَلَى اللَّهِ لَأَبَرَّهُ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد:‏‏‏‏ سَمِعْتُ أَحْمَدَ بْنَ حَنْبَلٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قِيلَ لَهُ:‏‏‏‏ كَيْفَ يُقْتَصُّ مِنَ السِّنِّ ؟ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ تُبْرَدُ.

Al-Rubayyi, sister of Anas bin al-Nadr رضی اللہ عنہ, broke (one of) the front teeth of a woman. They came to the Prophet صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم. He made a decision in accordance with the Book of Allah that retaliation should be taken. Anas bin al-Nadr said: I swear by Him who has sent you the truth, her front tooth will not be broken today. He replied: Anas! Allah's decree is retaliation. But the people were agreeable to accepting a fine, so the Prophet صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم said: Among Allah's servants there are those who, if they adjured Allah, He (Allah) would consent to it. Abu Dawud said: I heard Ahmad bin Hanbal say: He was asked: How retaliation of a tooth is taken ? He said: It is broken with a file.
