في الرجلين يدعيان الشيء فيقيم هذا شاهدين ويقيم هذا رجلاIf Two People Claim Something, One Presents Two Witnesses and the Other One
Hadith 22595
٢٢٥٩٥ - حدثنا أبو بكر قال: حدثنا ابن فضيل عن عاصم بن كليب عن محمد ابن كعب قال: (بعت) (١) بغلة من رجل، (فلبث) (٢) ما شاء اللَّه، فأتاني وقد عرفت البغلة عنده، فأتينا شريحا وانطلقت (بالدابة) (٣)، فأقام سبعة من الشهود أنها دابته (٤) لم تبع ولم تهب، وجاء الآخر بستة من الشهود أنها دابته لم تبع ولم تهب، فقال شريح: أشهد (بأن) (٥) أحد الفريقين كاذب، فقسمها بينهم على ثلاثة (عشر سهمًا) (٦) أعطى كل واحد منهما بحصة (شهوده) (٧).
It is narrated from Hazrat Muhammad bin Ka'b, may Allah have mercy on him, that I sold a mule to a person. He kept it for as long as Allah willed, then he came to me, and I recognized the mule with him. We both went to Hazrat Shurayh. I took the animal and started walking away with it. One of them produced seven witnesses that this animal belongs to him, it has neither been sold nor gifted, and the other came and produced six witnesses that this animal belongs to him, it has neither been sold nor gifted. Hazrat Shurayh, may Allah have mercy on him, said: I bear witness that one of the parties is certainly lying. He then divided it among them into thirteen parts, giving each a share according to the number of his witnesses.
