Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ قَضَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الْجَنِينِ بِغُرَّةٍ عَبْدٍ أَوْ أَمَةٍ فَقَالَ الَّذِي قَضَى عَلَيْهِ أَيُعْقَلُ مَنْ لَا شَرِبَ وَلَا أَكَلَ وَلَا صَاحَ فَاسْتَهَلَّ فَمِثْلُ ذَلِكَ يُطَلُّ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّ هَذَا لَيَقُولُ بِقَوْلِ شَاعِرٍ نَعَمْ فِيهِ غُرَّةٌ عَبْدٌ أَوْ أَمَةٌ.
English Translation
Yazid told us: Muhammad b. Amr informed us, from Abu Salamah, from Abu Hurayrah, who said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, judged, regarding a miscarried fetus, that a slave - male or female - should be given. The one against whom the ruling was given said: "How can there be liability for one who neither drank nor ate, nor cried out at birth? Such a thing is to be disregarded." The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "This man is speaking the words of a poet. Yes, in it is due a slave, male or female."
