Bayhaqi 16235 — Reports on diminished eyesight

أَنْبَأَنِي أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ إِجَازَةً، أنبأ أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ، ثنا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ، ثنا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، ثنا عَبَّادُ بْنُ الْعَوَّامِ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ، أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَصَابَ عَيْنَ رَجُلٍ فَذَهَبَ بِبَعْضِ بَصَرِهِ وَبَقِيَ بَعْضٌ، فَرَفَعَ ذَلِكَ إِلَى عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ فَأَمَرَ بِعَيْنِهِ الصَّحِيحَةِ فَعُصِبَتْ، وَأَمَرَ رَجُلًا بِبَيْضَةٍ فَانْطَلَقَ بِهَا وَهُو يَنْظُرُ حَتَّى انْتَهَى بَصَرُهُ، ثُمَّ خَطَّ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ عَلَمًا ثُمَّ نَظَرَ فِي ذَلِكَ فَوَجَدَهُ سَوَاءً قَالَ: فَأَعْطَاهُ بِقَدْرِ مَا نَقَصَ مِنْ بَصَرِهِ ثُمَّ خَطَّ عَلَيْهَا مِنْ مَالِ الْآخَرِ.
Ibn al-Musayyib (may Allah have mercy on him) said that a man was struck in the eye and his sight was weakened. The case was brought to Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him). He bound up his healthy eye and ordered a man to walk carrying an egg (until the point) where his sight came to an end. Then the other eye was checked in the same way, and the two were almost equal. He was given diyah in proportion to the sight he was found to have lost.
