Sayyiduna Zayd bin Arqam (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) was in Yemen. A woman was brought to him, with whom three men had intercourse during one period of purity. He said to two of them: "Do you both acknowledge the child in favor of the third?" They did not acknowledge. Then he asked two others: "Do you acknowledge the child for the third?" They also did not acknowledge. Then he asked two others, but they also did not acknowledge. Then he cast lots among them and assigned the child to the one whose name was drawn, and made it obligatory for him to pay two-thirds of the blood money. When this matter was presented before the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he smiled so much that his molar teeth became visible.
