حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَضْرَمِيُّ ثنا جَنْدَلُ بْنُ وَالْقٍ ثنا عَبْدُ الرَّحِيمِ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ ح وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَضْرَمِيُّ قنا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ثنا جَرِيرٌ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَالِمٍ عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ دُرِّيِّ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَرْقَمَ قَالَ
كُنْتُ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ إِذْ جَاءَهُ كِتَابٌ مِنْ عَلِيٍّ ؓ فِيهِ أَنَّ ثَلَاثَةَ نَفَرٍ أَتَوْنِي يَخْتَصِمُونَ فِي غُلَامٍ وَطِئُوا أُمَّهُ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ فِي طُهْرٍ وَاحِدٍ كُلُّهُمْ يَدَّعِيهِ أَنَّهُ ابْنُهُ فَقَضَيْتُ بَيْنَهُمْ أَنْ أَقْرَعْتُ بَيْنَهُمْ وَجَعَلْتُهُ لِلْقَارِعِ مِنْهُمْ عَلَى أَنْ يَغْرَمَ لِلْآخَرَيْنِ ثُلُثَيِ الدِّيَةِ فَضَحِكَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ حَتَّى بَدَا نَاجِذَاهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ «لَا أَعْلَمُ فِيهَا إِلَّا مَا قَضَى عَلِيٌّ ؓ»

✧ I was with the Prophet ﷺ when a letter came to him from Ali ؓ in which he said: 'Three men came to me disputing about a boy whose mother they had had intercourse with during pre-Islamic times in a single purity period, each claiming he was his son. I judged among them by drawing lots among them and made the boy belong to the one who drew the lot, on condition that he pay two-thirds of the blood money to the other two.' The Prophet ﷺ laughed until his molars appeared, then said: 'I know nothing in this matter except what Ali ؓ judged.'
