bayhaqi:16329Abū Saʿīd b. Abū ʿAmr > Abū al-ʿAbbās al-Aṣam > Baḥr b. Naṣr > ʿAbdullāh b. Wahb > Ibn Jurayj > ʿAmr b. Shuʿayb > Qaḍá

[Machine] Abu Bakr decided that the barrier has to be hit until hair comes off in twelve lashes of a whip from camels. Ibn Wahb said, and Malik also said to me about them that it requires effort. The Sheikh, may Allah have mercy on him, said, it is possible that he decided in the two eyebrows when they were hit with clarification in two clear lashes or a judgment that reached this amount, even though the hadith is disconnected and there is no evidence in it.  

البيهقي:١٦٣٢٩أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدِ بْنُ أَبِي عَمْرٍو ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ الْأَصَمُّ ثنا بَحْرُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ قَالَ

قَضَى أَبُو بَكْرٍ ؓ فِي الْحَاجِبِ إِذَا أُصِيبَ حَتَّى يَذْهَبَ شَعْرُهُ بِمُوضِحَتَيْنِ عَشْرٍ مِنَ الْإِبِلِ قَالَ ابْنُ وَهْبٍ وَقَالَ لِي مَالِكٌ فِيهِمَا الِاجْتِهَادُ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ يُحْتَمَلُ أَنَّهُ قَضَى فِي الْحَاجِبَيْنِ إِذَا أُصِيبَا بِإِيضَاحٍ بِأَرْشِ مُوضِحَتَيْنِ أَوْ بِحُكُومَةٍ بَلَغَتْ هَذَا الْمِقْدَارَ مَعَ أَنَّ الْحَدِيثَ مُنْقَطِعٌ لَا حُجَّةَ فِيهِ
