أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ حَدَّثَنَا أُمَيَّةُ بْنُ بِسْطَامٍ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحُ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ عَنِ ابْنِ عَجْلَانَ عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ عَنِ الْأَعْرَجِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ

«إِنَّ امْرَأَتَيْنِ أَتَتَا دَاوُدَ وَكُلُّ وَاحِدَةٍ تَخْتَصِمُ فِي ابْنِهَا فَقَضَى لِلْكُبْرَى فَلَمَّا خَرَجَتَا قَالَ سُلَيْمَانُ كَيْفَ قَضَى بَيْنَكُمَا فَأَخْبَرَتَاهُ فَقَالَ ائْتُونِي بِالسِّكِّينِ وَأَوَّلُ مَنْ سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ» السِّكِّينُ «رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِنَّمَا كُنَّا نُسَمِّيهَا الْمُدْيَةَ فَقَالَتِ الصُّغْرَى مَهْ؟ قَالَ أَشُقُّهُ بَيْنَكُمَا قَالَتِ ادْفَعْهُ إِلَيْهَا وَقَالَتِ الْكُبْرَى شُقَّهُ بَيْنَنَا قَالَ فَقَضَاهُ سُلَيْمَانُ لِلصُّغْرَى وَقَالَ لَوْ كَانَ ابْنَكِ لَمْ تَرْضَيْ أَنْ نَشُقَّهُ

✧ Two women came to Dawud, each claiming the child as her own. He ruled in favor of the older one. When they went out, Sulayman said, 'How did he judge between you?' They told him. He said, 'Bring me a knife.'—The first person I heard say "al-sikkin" (knife) was the Messenger of Allah ﷺ; we used to call it "al-mudya."—Then the younger woman said, 'What?' He said, 'I will split him between you.' She said, 'Give him to her.' The older woman said, 'Split him between us.' He said, 'So Sulayman ruled in favor of the younger one and said, "If he were your son, you would not be pleased for us to split him."'
