قَالَ مَالِكٌ : وَالْمَأْمُومَةُ مَا خَرَقَ الْعَظْمَ إِلَى الدِّمَاغِ، وَلَا تَكُونُ الْمَأْمُومَةُ إِلَّا فِي الرَّأْسِ، وَمَا يَصِلُ إِلَى الدِّمَاغِ إِذَا خَرَقَ الْعَظْمَ. ¤
Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said that "Mamoomah" is the blow that reaches the brain by breaking the bone, and "Mamoomah" occurs only in the head.
