[Machine] There was once a house between two brothers, and they divided it equally. Then, both of them died and each one left behind an heir. Each heir claimed that the house belonged to them alone, without the other's partner. They then brought their dispute to the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ , who sent Hudhayfah ibn al-Yaman to settle the matter. He ruled in favor of the one who found the written contract. Hudhayfah then returned and informed the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ , who said, "You have judged correctly." This narration is attributed to Dawud ibn Rushayd.
أَنَّ دَارًا كَانَتْ بَيْنَ أَخَوَيْنِ فَحَظَرَا فِي وَسَطِهَا حِظَارًا ثُمَّ هَلَكَا وَتَرَكَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمَا عَقِبًا فَادَّعَى عَقِبُ كُلِّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمَا أَنَّ الْحِظَارَ لَهُ مِنْ دُونِ صَاحِبِهِ فَاخْتَصَمَ عَقِبَاهُمَا إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَأَرْسَلَ حُذَيْفَةَ بْنَ الْيَمَانِ ؓ يَقْضِي بَيْنَهُمَا فَقَضَى بِالْحِظَارِ لِمَنْ وَجَدَ مَعَاقِدَ الْقِمْطِ تَلِيهِ ثُمَّ رَجَعَ فَأَخْبَرَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَصَبْتَ قَالَ دَهْثَمٌ أَوْ قَالَ أَحْسَنْتَ لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ دَاوُدَ بْنِ رُشَيْدٍ
