Sahih

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، عَنِ الْوَلِيدِ يَعْنِي ابْنَ كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي مَالِكِ بْنِ ثَعْلَبَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ثَعْلَبَةَ بْنِ أَبِي مَالِكٍ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ كُبَرَاءَهُمْ يَذْكُرُونَ: أَنَّ رَجُلًا مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ كَانَ لَهُ سَهْمٌ فِي بَنِي قُرَيْظَةَ، فَخَاصَمَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي مَهْزُورٍ يَعْنِي السَّيْلَ الَّذِي يَقْتَسِمُونَ مَاءَهُ، فَقَضَى بَيْنَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّ الْمَاءَ إِلَى الْكَعْبَيْنِ لَا يَحْبِسُ الْأَعْلَى عَلَى الْأَسْفَلِ .

He heard his elders say that a man from the Quraysh had his share with Banu Qurayzah (in water). He brought the dispute to the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم about al-Mahzur, a stream whose water they shared together. The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم then decided that when water reached the ankles waters should not be held back to flow to the lower.
