أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ الثَّقَفِيُّ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ يَحْيَى بْنَ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ سَعِيدَ بْنَ الْمُسَيِّبِ، يَقُولُ:
قَضَى عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ فِي الْإِبْهَامِ وَالَّتِي تَلِيهَا نِصْفَ دِيَةِ الْكَفِّ، وَفِي الْوُسْطَى عَشْرًا، وَفِي الَّتِي تَلِيهَا تِسْعًا، وَفِي الْخِنْصَرِ سِتًّا. قَالَ سَعِيدٌ: حَتَّى وَجَدَ كِتَابًا عِنْدَ آلِ عَمْرِو بْنِ حَزْمٍ، يَزْعُمُونَ أَنَّهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، فِيهِ: وَفِي كُلِّ أُصْبُعٍ عَشْرٌ. قَالَ سَعِيدٌ فَصَارَتْ إِلَى عَشْرٍ عَشْرٍ

✧ Umar b. al-Khattab ؓ ruled for the thumb and the one next to it half the blood money of the hand, for the middle finger ten, for the one next to it nine, and for the little finger six. Said said: Until he found a document with the family of Amr b. Hazm, which they claimed was from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, in which was: And for every finger ten. Said said: So it became ten, ten.
