وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أنبأ أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ الْفَقِيهُ، أنبأ الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ، ثنا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ، أَنَّ رَجُلَيْنِ اخْتَصَمَا إِلَى شُرَيْحٍ فِي دَابَّةٍ، فَأَقَامَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمَا الْبَيِّنَةَ أَنَّهَا لَهُ، وَأَنَّهُ أَنْتَجَهَا، فَقَالَ شُرَيْحٌ: " هِيَ لِلَّذِي فِيُ يَدَيْهِ، النَّاتِجُ أَحَقُّ مِنَ الْعَارِفِ ".
Ayyub narrates from Muhammad that two men came to Qadi Shurayh (may Allah have mercy on him) with a dispute over an animal, and each also had testimony that it had been born in his care; so Qadi Shurayh (may Allah have mercy on him) also gave judgement in favour of the one in whose possession (it) was, (and said): The one in whose care it was born has more right than the one who (merely) recognises it.
