"عن الأصمعِىّ ()، عن مسلمةَ بن علقمة المازنى أن عمر قال لكعب: لأى ابن آدم كان النسل؟ قال: ليس لواحد منهما نسلٌ، أما المقتول فدرجَ، وأما القاتل فهلك نسلهُ في الطوفان، والناسُ من بنى نوحٍ ونوحٌ من بنى شيثِ بن آدم".

It is narrated from al-Asma'i, from Maslamah ibn 'Alqamah al-Mazini, that 'Umar said to Ka'b: "To which son of Adam did the offspring belong?" He said: "Neither of the two had offspring. As for the one who was killed, he passed away, and as for the killer, his offspring perished in the flood, and the people are from the sons of Nuh, and Nuh is from the sons of Shith ibn Adam."
