[Machine] Imam Al-Shafi'i, may Allah have mercy on him, said: "The first type of injury is the superficial one, which only scratches the skin slightly. Then there is the deeper injury, which cuts into the flesh after breaking the skin. Then there is the injury that penetrates into the muscles but does not reach the bone. The dermis is a thin layer between the flesh and the bone, and any thin membrane is considered dermal. When the injury reaches this thin layer, and there is nothing left between the flesh and the bone except for it, it is called dermal. Then there is the exposed injury, which is when the skin is stripped away and is cut until the bone is visible, and this is called the exposed injury. Then there is the fractured injury, which breaks the bone, and the displaced injury which causes a dislocation in the bone. Then there is the damaged injury, which damages the bone marrow, and the severed injury, which reaches the brain and the spinal cord. Anything below the exposed injury is considered a scratch, and the bleeding injury is the one that bleeds without blood flowing from it."
