Abd al-Rahman bin Abi Layla (may Allah have mercy on him) said: I was sitting with Sayyiduna Abu al-Darda' (may Allah be pleased with him); and he narrated a hadith of similar meaning, (adding) that they had found the horse with a man.
Imam al-Shafi'i (may Allah have mercy on him) said: In a matter like this I suspend judgement; the two of them may be given something by way of settlement, otherwise nothing at all is to be given.
