قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع مَا تَقُولُ فِي رَجُلٍ قَطَعَ إِصْبَعاً مِنْ أَصَابِعِ الْمَرْأَةِ كَمْ فِيهَا قَالَ عَشْرٌ مِنَ الْإِبِلِ قُلْتُ قَطَعَ اثْنَيْنِ قَالَ عِشْرُونَ قُلْتُ قَطَعَ ثَلَاثاً قَالَ ثَلَاثُونَ قُلْتُ قَطَعَ أَرْبَعاً قَالَ عِشْرُونَ قُلْتُ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ يَقْطَعُ ثَلَاثاً فَيَكُونُ عَلَيْهِ ثَلَاثُونَ وَ يَقْطَعُ أَرْبَعاً فَيَكُونُ عَلَيْهِ عِشْرُونَ إِنَ هَذَا كَانَ يَبْلُغُنَا وَ نَحْنُ بِالْعِرَاقِ فَنَبْرَأُ مِمَّنْ قَالَهُ وَ نَقُولُ الَّذِي جَاءَ بِهِ شَيْطَانٌ فَقَالَ مَهْلًا يَا أَبَانُ هَكَذَا حَكَمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص إِنَّ الْمَرْأَةَ تُقَابِلُ الرَّجُلَ إِلَى ثُلُثِ الدِّيَةِ فَإِذَا بَلَغَتِ الثُّلُثَ رَجَعَتْ إِلَى النِّصْفِ يَا أَبَانُ إِنَّكَ أَخَذْتَنِي بِالْقِيَاسِ وَ السُّنَّةُ إِذَا قِيسَتْ مُحِقَ الدِّينُ.

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, and Muhammad Bin Ismail, from Al Fazl Bin Shazaan, both together from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Abdul Rahman Bin Al Hajjaj, from Aban Bin Taghlub who said, ‘I said to Abu Abdullah asws , ‘What are you asws saying regarding a man who cut-off a finger from the fingers of a woman, how much (compensation) is regarding it?’ He asws said: ‘Ten from the camels’. I said, ‘He cuts off two?’ He asws said: ‘Twenty’. I said, ‘He cuts off three?’ He asws said: ‘Thirty’. I said, ‘He cuts off four?’ He asws said: ‘Twenty’. I said, ‘Glory be to Allah azwj ! He cuts-off three, so there happens to be thirty upon him, and he cuts-off four, so there happens to be twenty upon him. This had reached us and we were at Al-Iraq, so we distanced ourselves from the one who said it, and we were saying that the one who comes with it is a devil’. So he asws said: ‘Shh! No Aban, it is not like this. Rasool-Allah saww judged that the woman would be equal to the man up to a third of the wergild. So when it reaches the third, she returns to the half. O Aban! You (attempted to) seize me asws with the analogy, but (it’s) the Sunnah, (remember) when it is analogised, (it) destroys the Religion’.
