Bayhaqi 21194 — Retracting testimony

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أنبأ أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ، ثنا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ، ثنا حِبَّانُ، عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُبَارَكِ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي حُصَيْنٍ، عَنْ شُرَيْحٍ، أَنَّهُ: شَهِدَ عِنْدَهُ رَجُلٌ بِشَهَادَةٍ، وَأَمْضَى شُرَيْحٌ الْحُكْمَ فِيهَا، فَرَجَعَ الرَّجُلُ بَعْدُ، فَلَمْ يُصَدِّقْ قَوْلَهُ، يَعْنِي: فَلَمْ يَنْقُضِ الْأَوَّلَ، وَلَمْ يُصَدِّقْ قَوْلَهُ فِي الرُّجُوعِ ثُمَّ التَّغْرِيمِ فِيمَا يَكُونُ إِتْلَافًا عَلَى مَا مَضَى.
Abu Husayn narrates from Judge Shurayh (may Allah have mercy on him) that a man gave testimony before him and Shurayh carried out the judgement according to it. Afterwards the man retracted, but Shurayh did not believe his statement; that is, he did not overturn the first judgement and did not accept his retraction. As for making him pay compensation for whatever was destroyed, that is as has already passed.
