إِذَا ضُرِبَ الرَّجُلُ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ فَثَقُلَ لِسَانُهُ عُرِضَتْ عَلَيْهِ حُرُوفُ الْمُعْجَمِ يَقْرَأُ ثُمَّ قُسِمَتِ الدِّيَةُ عَلَى حُرُوفِ الْمُعْجَمِ فَمَا لَمْ يُفْصِحْ بِهِ الْكَلَامَ كَانَتِ الدِّيَةُ بِالْقِيَاسِ مِنْ ذَلِكَ .


Translation

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Hammad, from Al Halby, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘When the man is struck upon his head, so his tongues becomes heavy, the letters of the alphabet would be presented to him. He would read, then the wergild would be divided upon the letters of the alphabet. So whatever he could not pronounce eloquently with the speech, the wergild would be quantified by the measurement from that’.
