A man who makes a false accusation and claims an absent proof

Juwaybir says that it is narrated from al-Dahhak concerning a man who accused a woman and then claimed to have absent witnesses. He said: "He shall not be given respite."

Abu Ulathah Muhammad bin Abdullah al-Uqayli says that a man accused another man, and he was brought before Umar bin Abd al-Aziz. The accuser claimed to have proof of what he had said to him, in Armenia, meaning that it was absent. Umar bin Abd al-Aziz said: "The hadd cannot be postponed, but if you bring proof, I will accept their testimony."

Bakr says that a man accused another man and was brought before Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him). He intended to flog him, but the man said: "I will establish proof," so he left him.
