They both filed their case with the Prophet ﷺ and he judged that the blood money for what was in her womb. was a slave or a female slave.

Soothsayers mix truth with lies

bukhari:5762ʿAlī b. ʿAbdullāh > Hishām b. Yūsuf > Maʿmar > al-Zuhrī > Yaḥyá b. ʿUrwah b. al-Zubayr > ʿUrwah > ʿĀʾishah

[AI] Some people asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about soothsayers, so he said: "They are nothing." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, they sometimes tell us something, and it turns out to be true." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "That is a word of truth; he snatches it from the jinni and places it in the ear of his ally, then they mix with it a hundred lies."

Ali said: Abd al-Razzaq said, "It is mursal: 'the word is from the truth.' Then it reached me that he later connected its chain."

البخاري:٥٧٦٢حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ عُرْوَةَ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ؓ قَالَتْ

سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ نَاسٌ عَنِ الْكُهَّانِ، فَقَالَ: «لَيْسَ بِشَىْءٍ»، فَقَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنَّهُمْ يُحَدِّثُونَا أَحْيَانًا بِشَىْءٍ فَيَكُونُ حَقًّا، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «تِلْكَ الْكَلِمَةُ مِنَ الْحَقِّ، يَخْطَفُهَا مِنَ الْجِنِّيِّ، فَيَقُرُّهَا فِي أُذُنِ وَلِيِّهِ، فَيَخْلِطُونَ مَعَهَا مِائَةَ كَذْبَةٍ».

قَالَ عَلِيٌّ: قَالَ عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ: مُرْسَلٌ الْكَلِمَةُ مِنَ الْحَقِّ، ثُمَّ بَلَغَنِي أَنَّهُ أَسْنَدَهُ بَعْدَهُ.
