Mishkat al-Masabih #3345

Retaliation

The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.

عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «هَذِهِ وَهَذِهِ سَوَاءٌ» يَعْنِي الخِنصرُ والإبهامَ. رَوَاهُ البُخَارِيّ
Ibn ‘Abbas reported the Prophet as saying, “This and that are equal,” meaning the little finger and the thumb. Bukhari transmitted it.
