Arabic Text
وَقَالَ الأُوَيْسِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ بْنِ الْحَجَّاجِ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ عَدَا يَهُودِيٌّ فِي عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَلَى جَارِيَةٍ، فَأَخَذَ أَوْضَاحًا كَانَتْ عَلَيْهَا وَرَضَخَ رَأْسَهَا، فَأَتَى بِهَا أَهْلُهَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَهْىَ فِي آخِرِ رَمَقٍ، وَقَدْ أُصْمِتَتْ، فَقَال
َ لَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " مَنْ قَتَلَكِ فُلاَنٌ ". لِغَيْرِ الَّذِي قَتَلَهَا، فَأَشَارَتْ بِرَأْسِهَا أَنْ لاَ، قَالَ فَقَالَ لِرَجُلٍ آخَرَ غَيْرِ الَّذِي قَتَلَهَا، فَأَشَارَتْ أَنْ لاَ، فَقَالَ " فَفُلاَنٌ ". لِقَاتِلِهَا فَأَشَارَتْ أَنْ نَعَمْ، فَأَمَرَ بِهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَرُضِخَ رَأْسُهُ بَيْنَ حَجَرَيْنِ.
English Translation
Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that during the lifetime of Allah's Messenger ﷺ a Jew attacked a girl and took some silver ornaments she was wearing and crushed her head. Her relative brought her to the Prophet ﷺ while she was in her last breaths, and she was unable to speak. Allah's Messenger ﷺ asked her, "Who has hit you? so-and-so?", mentioning somebody other than her murderer. She moved her head, indicating denial. the Prophet ﷺ mentioned another person other than the murderer, and she again moved her head indicating denial. Then he asked, "Was it so-and-so?", mentioning the name of her killer. She nodded, agreeing. Then Allah's Messenger ﷺ; ordered that the head of that Jew be crushed between two stones
