‏ أَرَدْتَ أَنْ تَقْضَمَ ذِرَاعَ أَخِيكَ كَمَا يَقْضَمُ الْفَحْلُ ‏

‏ ‏.‏ فَأَبْطَلَهَا ‏.‏

English translation

It was narrated from 'Imran bin Husain that:

a man bit another man in the forearm, and his front tooth fell out, so he went to the Prophet (ﷺ) and told him about that. He said: "Do you want to bite your brother's forearm as a stallion bites?" And he judged it to be invalid.
