Can one finger be taken in retaliation for another finger?
Chapter on Retaliation (Qawad)
Al-Mughni
Book of Wounds
Primary text
One finger is not taken in retaliation for another finger unless they agree in name and location. Similarly, one phalanx (anmulah) is not taken for another unless they agree upon the same name and location. A superior phalanx cannot be taken for an inferior one, nor can the middle for the superior or inferior, and the middle and inferior cannot be taken for any other part.
