51. Chapter
٥١۔ كِتَابُ الدِّيَاتِ
[Machine] About the Prophet ﷺ , in terms of age, there are five things. And the tooth is considered an age [indicator]. And I say with the saying of Umar, in the neck and the rib, because no one among the Prophet's companions differed with him in what I have learned. So, I did not see a reason to go against my opinion to oppose him. The sheikh said, and Sa'id ibn al-Musayyib also held this opinion, and al-Shafi'i, may Allah have mercy on him, said in his book of wounds that it is similar, and Allah knows best, to what was mentioned about Umar in the description of governance. It doesn't require the timing of a person's intellect. So, in every bone that is broken in a human being other than the tooth, there is governance, and there is no specified period for it.
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي السِّنِّ خَمْسٌ وَكَانَتِ الضِّرْسُ سِنًّا وَأَنَا أَقُولُ بِقَوْلِ عُمَرَ ؓ فِي التَّرْقُوَةِ وَالضِّلَعِ؛ لِأَنَّهُ لَمْ يُخَالِفْهُ أَحَدٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِيمَا عَلِمْتُهُ فَلَمْ أَرَ أَنْ أَذْهَبَ إِلَى رَأْيِي فَأُخَالِفَهُ بِهِ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ وَإِلَى هَذَا ذَهَبَ سَعِيدُ بْنُ الْمُسَيِّبِ وَقَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ فِي كِتَابِ الْجِرَاحِ يُشْبِهُ وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ أَنْ يَكُونَ مَا حُكِيَ عَنْ عُمَرَ فِيمَا وَصَفْتُ حُكُومَةً لَا تَوْقِيتَ عَقْلٍ فَفِي كُلِّ عَظْمٍ كُسِرَ مِنْ إِنْسَانٍ غَيْرَ السِّنِّ حُكُومَةٌ وَلَيْسَ فِي شَيْءٍ مِنْهَا أَرْشٌ مَعْلُومٌ
