Hadith 17949

حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنِي عَطَاءٌ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنِي صَفْوَانُ بْنُ يَعْلَى بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، قَالَ : قَاتَلَ أَجِيرِي رَجُلًا ، فَعَضَّ يَدَهُ ، فَنَزَعَ يَدَهُ مِنْ فِيهِ ، فَأَنْدَرَ ثَنِيَّتَهُ ، فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَهْدَرَهُ ، وَقَالَ : " فَيَدَعُ يَدَهُ فِي فِيكَ تَقْضَمُهَا كَمَا يَقْضَمُ الْفَحْلُ ! " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Ya'la (may Allah be pleased with him) that my laborer (tenant) had a fight with a man. That man took his hand into his mouth and bit it. When he pulled his hand away, the man's tooth broke. He went to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) rejected his claim and said, "Should he have left his hand in your mouth so that you could keep chewing it like a bull?"
