Narrated by Bukhari & Muslim · Authentic hadith
عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ رضي الله عنه أَنَّهُ اسْتَشَارَ النَّاسَ فِي إمْلاصِ الْمَرْأَةِ، فَقَالَ الْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ شُعْبَةَ: «شَهِدْت النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَضَى فِيهِ بِغُرَّةٍ- عَبْدٍ أَوْ أَمَةٍ- فَقَالَ: ائتني بِمَنْ يَشْهَدُ مَعَك، فَشَهِدَ مَعَهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ».
“‘Umar ibn al-Khattāb (may Allah be pleased with him) consulted the people about a woman who was caused to miscarry. Al-Mughīrah ibn Shu‘bah said: "I witnessed the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) passed a rule that a slave, male or female, be given as blood money." ‘Umar said: "Bring me someone to testify along with you." So, he brought Muhammad ibn Maslamah, who testified with him.”
