[Machine] Abu and his uncle Salamah bin Umayyah said that they went out with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the Battle of Tabuk, and we had a companion with us. A man from the people fought him and bit him, so our companion pulled his hand out of his mouth, and he threw some of it at him. Then he went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and asked him about intellect, so the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "One of you goes to his brother and bites him like the bite of a camel, then he comes and asks about intellect." Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ pointed to his mouth.

“We went out with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on the military expedition of Tabuk, and with us was a friend of ours. He fought with another man while we were on the road. The man bit the hand on his opponent, who pulled away his hand and the man's tooth fell out. He came to Messenger of Allah ﷺ demanding compensatory money for his tooth, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Would anyone of you go and bite his brother like a stallion, then come demanding compensatory money? There is no compensatory for this.'” Hence, The Messenger of Allah ﷺ invalidated it (i.e compensatory in such case).
