٤٩۔ كِتَابُ النَّفَقَاتِ
[Machine] Aisha stayed with Safwan bin Al-Muattal to tend to Hassan bin Thabit, who had been struck with a sword by Safwan. Hassan cried out for help and the people called out to punish Safwan. Safwan fled and Hassan went to the Prophet ﷺ seeking assistance against Safwan in seeking retribution for his strike. The Prophet ﷺ asked Hassan to give him the right to strike Safwan instead, so Hassan granted it to him. The Prophet ﷺ struck Safwan with the granted strike, causing him to fall against a large wall made of date palms and a flowing river, which is said to be either Roman or Coptic.
عَائِشَةُ وَقَعَدَ صَفْوَانُ بْنُ الْمُعَطَّلِ لِحَسَّانَ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ بِالسَّيْفِ فَضَرَبَهُ ضَرْبَةً وَصَاحَ حَسَّانُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ وَاسْتَغَاثَ النَّاسَ عَلَى صَفْوَانَ وَفَرَّ صَفْوَانُ وَجَاءَ حَسَّانُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَاسْتَعْدَاهُ عَلَى صَفْوَانَ فِي ضَرْبَتِهِ إِيَّاهُ فَسَأَلَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَنْ يَهَبَ لَهُ ضَرْبَةَ صَفْوَانَ إِيَّاهُ فَوَهَبَهَا لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَعَاضَهُ مِنْهَا حَائِطًا مِنْ نَخْلٍ عَظِيمٍ وَجَارِيَةً رُومِيَّةً وَيُقَالُ قِبْطِيَّةً
[Machine] About a man who strikes another with a sword in anger, what is to be done to him? He replied, Safwan ibn al-Muattal struck Hassaan ibn Thabit with a whip, and the Messenger of Allah did not cut his hand off.
عَنْ رَجُلٍ يَضْرِبُ الْآخَرَ بِالسَّيْفِ فِي غَضِبٍ مَا يُصْنَعُ بِهِ؟ قَالَ قَدْ ضَرَبَ صَفْوَانُ بْنُ الْمُعَطَّلِ حَسَّانَ بْنَ ثَابِتٍ الضُّرُوبَ فَلَمْ يَقْطَعْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَدَهُ
