( أَخْبَرَنَا ) أَبُو الْقَاسِمِ زَيْدُ بْنُ أَبِي هَاشِمٍ الْعَلَوِيُّ بِالْكُوفَةِ وَأَبُو الْقَاسِمِ عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ ابْنُ النَّجَّارِ الْمُقْرِي بِهَا أَيْضًا قَالَا: أَنْبَأَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ دُحَيْمٍ الشَّيْبَانِيُّ، ثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَازِمِ بْنِ أَبِي غَرَزَةَ، ثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ حَمَّادٍ، عَنْ أَسْبَاطٍ، عَنْ سِمَاكٍ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ:
كَانَتِ امْرَأَتَانِ ضَرَّتَانِ فَكَانَ بَيْنَهُمَا سَخَبٌ فَرَمَتْ إِحْدَاهُمَا الْأُخْرَى بِحَجَرٍ فَأَسْقَطَتْ غُلَامًا قَدْ نَبَتَ شَعَرُهُ مَيِّتًا وَمَاتَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ فَقَضَى عَلَى الْعَاقِلَةِ الدِّيَةَ فَقَالَ عَمُّهَا: إِنَّهَا قَدْ أَسْقَطَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ غُلَامًا قَدْ نَبَتَ شَعَرُهُ. فَقَالَ أَبُو الْقَاتِلَةِ: إِنَّهُ كَاذِبٌ، إِنَّهُ وَاللهِ مَا اسْتَهَلَّ وَلَا عَقَلَ وَلَا شَرِبَ وَلَا أَكَلَ، فَمِثْلُهُ يُطَلُّ؟ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: أَسَجْعُ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ وَكِهَانَتِهَا أَرَى ؟ فِي الصَّبِيِّ غُرَّةٌ

There were two women who were co-wives, and there was a quarrel between them. One of them threw a stone at the other and caused her to miscarry a boy whose hair had already grown, stillborn, and the woman herself died. So he ruled that the blood-money be paid by the ʿāqilah (the paternal kin). Then her uncle said: "She caused a boy to be miscarried, O Messenger of Allah, whose hair had already grown." The father of the killer said: "He is lying. By Allah, he did not cry out, nor did he reason, nor drink, nor eat. Is the like of him to be left unavenged?" The Prophet ﷺ said: "Is this the rhymed speech of the Jāhiliyyah and its soothsaying that I am hearing? For the child there is a ghurrah (a slave)."
