"عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَضَى في الْجَنِينِ غُرَّةَ عَبْدٍ أَوْ وَلِيدَةٍ فَقَالَ الْهُذَلِىُّ الَّذِى قَضَى عَلَيْهِ: كَيْفَ أُغَرَّمُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَنْ لَا شَرِبَ وَلَا أَكَلَ وَلَا نَطَقَ وَلَا اسْتَهَلَّ؟ فَمِثْلُ ذَلِكَ يُطَلُّ، فقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ : إِنَّمَا هَذَا مِنْ إِخْوَانِ الْكُهَّانِ".

bukhari:5759Qutaybah > Mālik > Ibn Shihāb > Abū Salamah > Abū Hurayrah

Two ladies (had a fight) and one of them hit the other with a stone on the ʿAbdomen and caused her to abort. The Prophet ﷺ judged that the victim be given either a slave or a female slave (as blood-money). Narrated Ibn Shihab: Saʿid bin Al-Musayyab said, "Messenger of Allah ﷺ judged that in case of child killed in the womb of its mother, the offender should give the mother a slave or a female slave in recompense The offender said, How can I be fined for killing one who neither ate nor drank, neither spoke nor cried: a case like that should be denied ' On that Messenger of Allah ﷺ said 'He is one of the brothers of the foretellers

the Messenger of Allah ruled that for a fetus which is killed in the mother's womb, a male or female slave be given (as Diyah). The one against whom he passed this ruling said: "How can I pay blood money for one who neither ate nor drank, or shouted or cried (at the moment of birth)? Such a one should be overlooked." The Messenger of Allah said: "This is one of the soothsayers."'

malik:43-12Mālik > Ibn Shihāb > Saʿīd b. al-Musayyab

Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab from Said ibn al- Musayyab that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave a judgement that the compensation for a foetus killed in its mother's womb was a slave or slave-girl of fair complexion and excellence. The one against whom the judgement was given said, "Why should I pay damages for that which did not drink or eat or speak or make any cry. The like of that is nothing." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "This is only one of the brothers of the diviners." He disapproved of the rhyming speech of the man's declaration.
