Hadith record

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Abu Nasr, from Abdullah Bin Sinan, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah asws having said: ‘There is nothing in the body which are two, so with regards to one of them is half the wergild, like the two hands, and the two eyes’. He (the narrator) said, ‘So I said, ‘A man was blinded with an eye. He asws said: ‘Half the wergild’. I said, ‘So a man whose hand is cut off?’ He asws said: ‘Regarding it is half the wergild’. I said, ‘So the man, one of his testicles goes away?’ He asws said: ‘If it was the left one, so with regards to it is the (complete) wergild’. I said, ‘And why? Did you asws not say; ‘Whatever were two in the body, so with regards to each one is half the wergild?’ He asws said: ‘Because the birth is from the left testicle’.
