A young child whose tooth is injured

Aslam, the freed slave of Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), said that Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) ruled one camel for a child's tooth when it falls out before the child has shed his milk teeth.

Jabir said that Amir al-Sha'bi said: "For the tooth of a child who has not yet shed his milk teeth, nothing is due except for the pain."

Ibn Salim said that al-Sha'bi said: "When a child's tooth is broken while he has not yet shed his milk teeth, the judge's decision will apply to it."

Ibn Jurayj said that Ibn Shihab said, regarding a small child who has not yet shed his milk teeth and who broke another child's tooth: "A penalty is due from him, whatever the arbitrator deems appropriate."

Amr said that al-Hasan al-Basri said, regarding the tooth of a child who has not yet shed his milk teeth: "Two just persons will examine this matter. If the tooth grows back, they will fix something for him, and if the tooth does not grow back, it will be like a man's tooth."
