Bayhaqi 20682 — Judging by an oath together with one witness

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدِ بْنُ أَبِي عَمْرٍو، ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ الْأَصَمُّ، أنبأ الرَّبِيعُ، أنبأ الشَّافِعِيُّ، أنبأ مَرْوَانُ بْنُ مُعَاوِيَةَ الْفَزَارِيُّ، ثنا حَفْصُ بْنُ مَيْمُونٍ الثَّقَفِيُّ، قَالَ: خَاصَمْتُ ⦗٢٩٣⦘ إِلَى الشَّعْبِيِّ فِي مُوضِحَةٍ، فَشَهِدَ الْقَائِسُ أَنَّهَا مُوضِحَةٌ، فَقَالَ الشَّاجُّ لِلشَّعْبِيِّ: أَتَقْبَلُ عَلَى شَهَادَةِ رَجُلٍ وَاحِدٍ؟ قَالَ الشَّعْبِيُّ: " قَدْ شَهِدَ الْقَائِسُ أَنَّهَا مُوضِحَةٌ، وَيَحْلِفُ الْمَشْجُوجُ عَلَى مِثْلِ ذَلِكَ "، قَالَ: فَقَضَى الشَّعْبِيُّ فِيهَا. قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ: وَذُكِرَ عَنْ هُشَيْمٍ، عَنْ مُغِيرَةَ أَنَّ الشَّعْبِيَّ قَالَ: " إِنَّ أَهْلَ الْمَدِينَةِ يَقْضُونَ بِالْيَمِينِ مَعَ الشَّاهِدِ ".
Hafs bin Maymun (may Allah have mercy on him) said: I took a dispute to al-Sha'bi (may Allah have mercy on him) concerning a wound that exposes the bone (mudihah). The assessor testified that it was a wound exposing the bone, so the one who had inflicted the wound said to al-Sha'bi (may Allah have mercy on him): Will you accept the testimony of a single man (against me)? Al-Sha'bi (may Allah have mercy on him) said: The assessor has testified that this wound exposes the bone, and the wounded man will swear to the same. The narrator said: So al-Sha'bi (may Allah have mercy on him) gave judgement in it.
Hushaym narrates from Mughirah (may Allah have mercy on him) that al-Sha'bi (may Allah have mercy on him) said: The people of Madinah judge by an oath and a witness.
