A number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Al Hassan Bin Al Abbas Bin Al Hareysh, (It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’far asws the 2 nd having said: ‘Abu Ja’far asws the 1 st said to Abdullah Bin Abbas: ‘O Ibn Abbas! I asws hereby adjure you with Allah azwj , is there a discrepancy in a Judgement of Allah azwj the High?’ He said, ‘No’. He asws said: ‘So what is your view regarding a man who struck a man’s fingers with the sword to the extent that they fell, so they were gone, and another man came over so he severs the palm of his hand. So they come up with him to you, and you are a judge. How would you deal with it?’ He said, ‘I would say to this cutter to give a wergild for the palm, and I would say to his cut one that he should reconcile whatever he so desires to, or I would sent to them two just persons (for reconciliation)’. So he asws said to him: ‘There would be differing in the Judgement of Allah azwj and the first words would be overturned. Allah azwj has Refused that anything from the legal penalties ( Hadd ) be innovated among His azwj creatures, and there is no interpretation for it in the earth. Cut off the hand of the palm cutter then give him a wergild for the fingers. This is the Judgement of Allah azwj the High’.
