Hadith 18:1128

Abu Bakr narrated to us, he said: Waki’ narrated to us, he said: Isra’il narrated to us, from Abu Ishaq, from al-Harith ibn al-Azma’, who said: A slain person was found in Yemen between [the tribes of] Wada’ah and Arhab. The governor of ‘Umar wrote to him [‘Umar] regarding it. ‘Umar wrote back to him: Measure the distance between the two tribes, and whichever of them it is closer to, hold them responsible for it.

حدثنا أبو بكر قال حدثنا وكيع قال حدثنا إسرائيل عن أبي إسحاق عن الحارث بن الأزمع قال وجد قتيل باليمن بين وادعة وأرحب فكتب عامل عمر إليه فكتب إليه عمر أن قس ما بين الحيين فإلى أيهما كان أقرب فخذهم به
