Abu ʿUbayd said: When a she-camel conceives, she is called _khalifah_, and she remains _khalifah_ until ten months. When she reaches ten months, she is called _ʿusharā’_.

Abu Ḥātim said—I do not know whether I heard it from him or not—: When [a camel] sheds its second incisor, it is _thanī_; and when it sheds its fourth incisor, it is _rubāʿī_.

**Chapter 19: Diyahs (Blood-Monies) for Body Parts**

4556 — Isḥāq ibn Ismāʿīl narrated to us: ʿAbdah — meaning ibn Sulaymān — narrated to us: Saʿīd ibn Abī ʿArūbah narrated to us, from Ghālib al-Tammār, from Ḥumayd ibn Hilāl, from Masrūq ibn Aws, from Abū Mūsā, from the Prophet ﷺ, who said: "The fingers are equal, ten [camels] for each, ten [camels] for each."(1)

---

(1) Ṣaḥīḥ by virtue of corroborating evidence; this chain is weak due to the unknown status of Masrūq ibn Aws. There is disagreement over its chain from Ghālib al-Tammār: sometimes it is narrated as it appears here with the author, and sometimes it is narrated without mentioning Ḥumayd ibn Hilāl in the chain, as will come with the author in the following transmission. Al-Dāraquṭnī in _al-ʿIlal_ 7/249 corrected the narration of Ghālib from Masrūq without mentioning Ḥumayd in the chain, while ʿAlī ibn al-Madīnī favored mentioning Ḥumayd ibn Hilāl, as reported from him by al-Bayhaqī 8/92.

It was also recorded by Ibn Mājah (2654) and al-Nasā’ī in _al-Kubrā_ (7020) and (7021) via the chain of Saʿīd ibn Abī ʿArūbah, with this isnād. Ibn Mājah limited it to his statement: "The fingers are equal."

Al-Nasā’ī also recorded it (7018) via Saʿīd ibn Abī ʿArūbah, from Qatādah, from Masrūq, from Abū Mūsā.

It is also in _Musnad Aḥmad_ (19610) and (19707).

See what follows it.

It has a supporting witness from the ḥadīth of Ibn ʿAbbās, recorded by al-Tirmidhī (1448) with a strong chain. It is part of the ḥadīth that follows with the author under numbers (4558–4561).

Another witness comes from the ḥadīth of ʿAbd Allāh ibn ʿAmr ibn al-ʿĀṣ, recorded by Aḥmad (6681), Ibn Mājah (2653), and al-Nasā’ī in _al-Kubrā_ (7026) with a ḥasan chain. It will come with the author under number (4562). =
