رَجُلٍ ضَرَبَ رَجُلًا بِعَصاً عَلَى رَأْسِهِ فَثَقُلَ لِسَانُهُ فَقَالَ يُعْرَضُ عَلَيْهِ حُرُوفُ الْمُعْجَمِ فَمَا أَفْصَحَ مِنْهُ بِهِ وَ مَا لَمْ يُفْصِحْ بِهِ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ الدِّيَةُ وَ هِيَ تِسْعَةٌ وَ عِشْرُونَ حَرْفاً .
Translation
From him, from his father, from Abdullah Bin Al Mugheira, from Abdullah Bin Sinan, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> regarding a man who struck a man with a stick upon his head, so his tongue became heavy. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘There would be presented to him the letter of the alphabet, so whatever he pronounces eloquently from it, and whatever he cannot pronounce eloquently from it, the wergild would be (based) upon it, and these are twenty nine letters’.
