أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ بْنُ بِشْرَانَ، أَنَا أَبُو عَمْرِو بْنُ السَّمَّاكِ، نا حَنْبَلُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ، نا عَاصِمُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، نا ابْنُ هِلَالٍ، نا ابْنُ سِيرِينَ،
قَالَ: " خَرَجَتْ دَابَّةٌ تَقْتُلُ النَّاسَ، مَنْ يَدْنُو مِنْهَا غَيْرَ أَنَّهَا سَحَرَتْ لِإِنْسَانٍ فَقَتَلَهَا قَالَ: فَجَاءَتْ جَارِيَةٌ فَقَالَتْ: دَعُونِي وَإِيَّاهَا، وَمَا أَرَانِي مُغْنِيَةً عَنْكُمْ شَيْئًا، فَدَنَتْ إِلَى الدَّابَّةِ فَقَتَلَتْهَا الدَّابَّةُ، فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ أَعْوَرُ فَقَالَ: دَعُونِي وَإِيَّاهَا، فَدَنَا مِنْهَا فَوَضَعَتْ رَأْسَهَا لَهُ حَتَّى قَتَلَهَا، فَقَالُوا: حَدِّثْنَا مِنْ أَمْرِكَ قَالَ: مَا أَصَبْتُ ذَنْبًا قَطُّ إِلَّا ذَنْبًا يَعْنِي فَأَخَذْتُ سَهْمًا فَفَقَأْتُهَا بِهِ " قَالَ الْإِمَامُ أَحْمَدُ: " لَعَلَّ هَذَا كَانَ فِي بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَفِي شَرِيعَةِ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَنَا، فَأَمَّا فِي شَرِيعَتِنَا فَلَا يَجُوزُ فَقْءُ الْعَيْنِ الَّتِي يُنْظَرُ بِهَا إِلَى مَا لَا يَحِلُّ، لَكِنْ يَسْتَغْفِرُ اللهَ تَعَالَى مِنْ ذَلِكَ، وَلَا يَعُودُ إِلَيْهِ، وَبِاللهِ التَّوْفِيقُ "

He said: "A beast came out killing the people; no one could approach it, except that it had bewitched a man, and he killed it. He said: Then a girl came and said: Leave me alone with it, though I do not see that I will avail you anything. She approached the beast and the beast killed her. Then a one-eyed man came and said: Leave me alone with it. He approached it, and it lowered its head to him until he killed it. They said: Tell us about your affair. He said: I have never committed any sin except one sin, meaning: so I took an arrow and put out her eye with it." Imam Aḥmad said: "Perhaps this was among the Children of Israel and in the law of those before us. As for our law, it is not permissible to put out the eye with which one looks at what is not lawful; rather, one seeks forgiveness from God the Exalted for that and does not return to it. And success is by God."
