It is narrated from Hazrat Mughirah (may Allah be pleased with him) that once Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) consulted the noble companions (may Allah be pleased with them) regarding what should be done if a pregnant woman miscarries due to someone. Hazrat Mughirah (may Allah be pleased with him) said that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had decreed in such a case the payment of a slave man or slave woman. Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "If what you say is correct, then present a witness who is aware of this hadith." Upon this, Hazrat Muhammad bin Maslamah (may Allah be pleased with him) testified that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had indeed given this ruling.
