Sunan Abu Dawood : 2799
Narrated Asim bin Kulaib from his father: :
حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، حَدَّثَنَا الثَّوْرِيُّ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ كُلَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: كُنَّا مَعَ رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، يُقَالُ لَهُ مُجَاشِعٌ مِنْ بَنِي سُلَيْمٍ فَعَزَّتِ الْغَنَمُ فَأَمَرَ مُنَادِيًا، فَنَادَى أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَقُولُ: إِنَّ الْجَذَعَ يُوَفِّي مِمَّا يُوَفِّي مِنْهُ الثَّنِيُّ ، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد: وَهُوَ مُجَاشِعُ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ.
We were with a man from the Companions of the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم called Mujashi' who belonged to Banu Sulaim. There was a scarcity if goats (in those days). He commanded a man to announce (among the people); so he announced that the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم used to say: A lamb may be given as full payment for that for which has full-grown animal is payment. Abu Dawud said: His name is Mujashi' bin Masud رضی اللہ عنہ .
