أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحَسَنِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْهَاشِمِيُّ بِبَغْدَادَ، ثنا أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْبَخْتَرِيُّ الرَّزَّازُ إِمْلَاءً، ثنا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ الدُّورِيُّ، ثنا يَعْلَى بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ، ثنا الْأَعْمَشُ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، وَالْأَعْمَشُ، عَنْ شَقِيقٍ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، قَالَا: قَالَ مُعَاذٌ: " بَعَثَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَى الْيَمَنِ وَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ آخُذَ مِنْ كُلِّ أَرْبَعِينَ بَقَرَةً ثَنِيَّةً، وَمِنْ كُلِّ ثَلَاثِينَ تَبِيعًا أَوْ تَبِيعَةً وَمِنْ كُلِّ حَالِمٍ دِينَارًا، أَوْ عِدْلُهُ مَعَافِرِيٌّ ".
Sayyiduna Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent me to Yemen so that from them "from every forty cattle a thaniyyah cow is to be taken, from every thirty a male or female yearling calf, and from every adult one dinar or its equivalent in the currency of the time."
وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ الْفَقِيهُ، أنبأ عَلِيُّ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْحَافِظُ، ثنا أَبُو بَكْرٍ النَّيْسَابُورِيُّ، ثنا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، ثنا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، ثنا مَعْمَرٌ، وَالثَّوْرِيُّ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، عَنْ مُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ قَالَ: " بَعَثَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَى الْيَمَنِ وَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَأْخُذَ مِنْ كُلِّ ثَلَاثِينَ بَقَرَةً تَبِيعًا أَوْ تَبِيعَةً، وَمِنْ كُلِّ أَرْبَعِينَ مُسِنَّةً، وَمِنْ كُلِّ حَالِمٍ دِينَارًا، أَوْ عِدْلُهُ مَعَافِرٌ ".
Sayyiduna Mu'adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent me to Yemen and ordered me: "to collect a male or female yearling calf from every thirty cattle, a musinnah from every forty, and from every adult male one dinar or its equivalent in the currency of the time."
وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الرُّذْبَارِيُّ، أنبأ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ، أنبأ أَبُو دَاوُدُ، ثنا النُّفَيْلِيُّ، وَعُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَابْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، قَالُوا: ثنا مُعَاوِيَةُ، ثنا الْأَعْمَشُ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، عَنْ مُعَاذٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِنَحْوِهِ.
This is another chain of the previous hadith.
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ بْنُ بِشْرَانَ، أنبأ إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الصَّفَّارُ، ثنا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عَفَّانَ، ثنا ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ نَافِعًا عَنِ الْبَقَرِ فَقَالَ: بَلَغَنِي عَنْ مُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: " فِي كُلِّ ثَلَاثِينَ تَبِيعٌ أَوْ تَبِيعَةٌ وَفِي كُلِّ أَرْبَعِينَ بَقَرَةً بَقَرَةٌ ".
Ubaydullah bin Umar (may Allah have mercy on him) said: I asked Nafi' about cattle, and he said: It has reached me from Mu'adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: In every thirty cattle there is a male or female yearling calf, and in every forty cattle there is one cow.
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ الْمُزَكِّي، ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، أنبأ الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، أنبأ الشَّافِعِيُّ، أنبأ مَالِكٌ، ح وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ الْمِهْرَجَانِيُّ، أنبأ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، ثنا ابْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، ثنا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ، عَنْ طَاوُسٍ الْيَمَانِيِّ، أَنَّ مُعَاذَ بْنَ جَبَلٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ أَخَذَ مِنْ ثَلَاثِينَ بَقَرَةً تَبِيعًا وَمِنْ أَرْبَعِينَ بَقَرَةً ⦗١٦٦⦘ مُسِنَّةً، وَأَتَى بِمَا دُونَ ذَلِكَ فَأَبَى أَنْ يَأْخُذَ مِنْهُ شَيْئًا، وَقَالَ لَمْ أَسْمَعْ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِيهِ شَيْئًا حَتَّى أَلْقَاهُ فَأَسْأَلَهُ فَتُوُفِّيَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَقْدَمَ مُعَاذُ بْنُ جَبَلٍ.
Tawus al-Yamani (may Allah have mercy on him) said that Sayyiduna Mu'adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) collected a yearling calf from thirty cattle and a musinnah from forty cattle. Fewer than that were brought to him, and he refused to take anything from them, and said: I have not heard anything about this from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), until I meet him and ask him. But the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) passed away before Sayyiduna Mu'adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) came to him.
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو زَكَرِيَّا، ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ، أنبأ الرَّبِيعُ، أنبأ الشَّافِعِيُّ، أنبأ سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ دِينَارٍ، عَنْ طَاوُسٍ، أَنَّ مُعَاذَ بْنَ جَبَلٍ أَتَى بِوَقْصِ الْبَقَرِ فَقَالَ: " لَمْ يَأْمُرْنِي فِيهِ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِشَيْءٍ ". قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ: وَالْوَقْصُ مَا لَمْ يَبْلُغِ الْفَرِيضَةَ.
Amr bin Dinar narrates from Tawus (may Allah have mercy on him) that the waqs of cattle (the number between two zakah thresholds) was brought to Sayyiduna Mu'adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him), and he said: "The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) did not command me anything concerning it." Imam al-Shafi'i (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Al-waqs is what does not reach the obligatory amount.
Al-Hasan bin Umarah said that the report which al-Hakam narrated from Tawus from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) is not a proof, in which he said: When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent Sayyiduna Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) to the people of Yemen, he was asked: "What have you been commanded?" He said: "I have been commanded to take a female or male yearling calf from thirty cattle, and a musinnah from every forty."
Al-Hasan bin Umarah said that the report which al-Hakam narrated from Tawus from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) is not a proof, in which he said: When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent Sayyiduna Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) to the people of Yemen, he was asked: "What have you been commanded?"

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الَحَافِظُ أنبأ أَبُو عَمْرٍو عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ الدَّقَّاقُ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ الْمُنَادِي ثنا أَبُو بَدْرٍ شُجَاعُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ ثنا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عُمَارَةَ ثنا الْحَكَمُ فَذَكَرَهُ وَلَهُ شَاهِدٌ بِإِسْنَادٍ أَجْوَدَ مِنْهُ.
Al-Hasan bin Umarah (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Al-Hakam narrated this same hadith to me.
It has a supporting report (shahid) with a better chain than this.

أَخْبَرَنَاهُ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ الْفَقِيهُ، أنبأ عَلِيُّ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْحَافِظُ، ثنا سَهْلُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ، ثنا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْفِرْيَابِيُّ، ثنا عَمْرُو بْنُ عُثْمَانَ، ثنا بَقِيَّةُ، حَدَّثَنِي الْمَسْعُودِيُّ، عَنِ الْحَكَمِ، عَنْ طَاوُسٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: لَمَّا بَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُعَاذًا إِلَى الْيَمَنِ أَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَأْخُذَ مِنَ الْبَقَرِ مِنْ كُلِّ ثَلَاثِينَ تَبِيعًا أَوْ تَبِيعَةً جَذَعًا أَوْ جَذَعَةً وَمِنْ كُلِّ أَرْبَعِينَ بَقَرَةً بَقَرَةً مُسِنَّةً فَقَالُوا فَالْأَوْقَاصُ؟ قَالَ: فَقَالَ: مَا أَمَرَنِي فِيهَا بِشَيْءٍ وَسَأَسْأَلُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا قَدِمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمَّا قَدِمَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سَأَلَهُ عَنِ الْأَوْقَاصِ فَقَالَ: " لَيْسَ فِيهَا شَيْءٌ " وَقَالَ الْمَسْعُودِيُّ: وَالْأَوْقَاصُ مَا دُونَ الثَّلَاثِينَ وَمَا بَيْنَ الْأَرْبَعِينَ إِلَى السِّتِّينَ، وَإِذَا كَانَتْ سِتُّونَ فَفِيهَا تَبِيعَتَانِ، فَإِذَا كَانَتْ سَبْعُونَ فَفِيهَا مُسِنَّةٌ وَتَبِيعٌ، فَإِذَا كَانَتْ ثَمَانُونَ فَفِيهَا مُسِنَّتَانِ، فَإِذَا كَانَتْ تِسْعُونَ فَفِيهَا ثَلَاثُ تَبَائِعَ، قَالَ بَقِيَّةُ: قَالَ الْمَسْعُودِيُّ الْأَوْقَاصُ: هِيَ بِالسِّينِ الْأَوْقَاسُ فَلَا تَجْعَلْهَا بِصَادٍ.
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent Sayyiduna Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) to Yemen, he ordered him to take from every thirty cattle a male or female yearling calf that is a jadha'ah, and from every forty cattle a musinnah. They said: What is the ruling about the awqas? He said: He did not command me anything about them, and I will ask the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) when I go to him (peace and blessings be upon him). So when he came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), he asked him about the awqas, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There is no zakah in them." Al-Mas'udi said: The awqas are what is below thirty and what is between forty and sixty. When they reach sixty, there are two female yearling calves in them; when they reach seventy, there is one musinnah and one yearling calf; when they reach eighty, there are two musinnahs; and when they reach ninety, there are three yearling calves. Al-Mas'udi said: Awqas is (spelled) with sin, so do not take it as being with sad.
وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو نَصْرٍ عُمَرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ بْنِ قَتَادَةَ قَالَ أنبأ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ عَبْدَةَ، ثنا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْعَبْدِيُّ الْبُوشَنْجِيُّ حَدَّثَنِي النُّفَيْلِيُّ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ، ثنا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ مُعَاوِيَةَ، ثنا أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ ضَمْرَةَ، وَعَنِ الْحَارِثِ ⦗١٦٧⦘ الْأَعْوَرِ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ زُهَيْرٌ أَحْسِبُهُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: " هَاتُوا رُبْعَ الْعُشْرِ ". فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ بِطُولِهِ قَالَ فِيهِ: وَفِي الْبَقَرِ فِي كُلِّ ثَلَاثِينَ تَبِيعٌ وَفِي الْأَرْبَعِينَ مُسِنَّةٌ وَلَيْسَ عَلَى الْعَوَامِلِ شَيْءٌ.
Zuhayr said: I think that Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) that he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Bring me a quarter of a tenth." Then he narrated the long hadith, in which he said: "In thirty cattle there is one yearling calf, and in forty cattle one musinnah, and there is no zakah on working animals."
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ جَنَاحُ بْنُ نُذَيْرِ بْنِ جَنَاحٍ بِالْكُوفَةِ، أنبأ أَبُو جَعْفَرِ بْنُ دُحَيْمٍ، ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَازِمٍ، ثنا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ دُكَيْنٍ، ثنا عَبْدُ السَّلَامِ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، ح وَأنبأ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، ثنا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الدُّورِيُّ، ثنا مَالِكُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، ثنا عَبْدُ السَّلَامِ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، عَنْ خُصَيْفٍ، عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " فِي الْبَقَرِ فِي كُلِّ ثَلَاثِينَ تَبِيعًا أَوْ تَبِيعَةً جَذَعٌ أَوْ جَذَعَةٌ وَفِي أَرْبَعِينَ مُسِنَّةٌ " لَمْ يَذْكُرْ جَنَاحٌ فِي رِوَايَتِهِ، جَذَعٌ أَوْ جَذَعَةٌ وَرَوَاهُ شَرِيكٌ عَنْ خُصَيْفٍ عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ عَنْ أُمِّهِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ، قَالَهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ.
Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "In every thirty cattle there is a male or female yearling calf, and in forty cattle one musinnah."
وَقَدْ مَضَى فِي حَدِيثِ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ دَاوُدَ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ حَزْمٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ كَتَبَ إِلَى أَهْلِ الْيَمَنِ قَالَ فِيهِ: " وَفِي كُلِّ ثَلَاثِينَ بَاقُورَةً تَبِيعٌ جَذَعٌ أَوْ جَذَعَةٌ، وَفِي كُلِّ أَرْبَعِينَ بَاقُورَةً بَقَرَةٌ ". حَدَّثَنِيهِ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ السُّلَمِيُّ أنبأ أَبُو عَمْرِو بْنُ حَمْدَانَ، أنبأ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ، ثنا الْحَكَمُ بْنُ مُوسَى ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَمْزَةَ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ دَاوُدَ فَذَكَرَهُ.
Abu Bakr bin Muhammad bin Amr bin Hazm (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates from his father, and he from his grandfather (may Allah be pleased with him), that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent a letter to the people of Yemen in which it was written: "In every thirty cattle there is a male or female calf, and in every forty cattle one cow."
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الَحَافِظُ، ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ الْمَحْبُوبِيُّ بِمَرْوٍ ثنا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ، ثنا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُوسَى، أنبأ سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ دَاوُدَ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ يَرْفَعُهُ، وَابْنُ أَبِي عَيَّاشٍ عَنْ أَنَسٍ يَرْفَعُهُ قَالَ: " فِي أَرْبَعِينَ مِنَ الْبَقَرِ مُسِنَّةٌ وَفِي ثَلَاثِينَ تَبِيعٌ أَوْ تَبِيعَةٌ ".
Dawud from al-Sha'bi (may Allah have mercy on him), and Ibn Abi Ayyash from Anas (may Allah be pleased with him), narrate in marfu' form that he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "In forty cattle there is one musinnah, and in thirty cattle one male or female yearling calf."
وَأَمَّا الْأَثَرُ الَّذِي أَخْبَرَنَاهُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، ثنا أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ الْفَسَوِيُّ، ثنا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ اللُّؤْلُئِيُّ، ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ ثَوْرٍ عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ، " فِي كُلِّ خَمْسٍ مِنَ الْبَقَرِ شَاةٌ وَفِي عَشْرٍ شَاتَانِ وَفِي خَمْسَ عَشْرَةَ ثَلَاثُ شِيَاهٍ وَفِي عِشْرِينَ أَرْبَعُ شِيَاهٍ "، قَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ: فَإِذَا كَانَتْ خَمْسًا وَعِشْرِينَ فَفِيهَا بَقَرَةٌ إِلَى خَمْسٍ وَسَبْعِينَ، فَإِذَا زَادَتْ عَلَى خَمْسٍ وَسَبْعِينَ فَفِيهَا بَقَرَتَانِ إِلَى عِشْرِينَ وَمِائَةٍ فَإِذَا زَادَتْ عَلَى عِشْرِينَ وَمِائَةٍ فَفِي كُلِّ أَرْبَعِينَ بَقَرَةً بَقَرَةٌ، قَالَ مَعْمَرٌ: قَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ: وَبَلَغَنَا أَنَّ قَوْلَهُمْ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " فِي كُلِّ ثَلَاثِينَ بَقَرَةً تَبِيعٌ وَفِي كُلِّ أَرْبَعِينَ بَقَرَةً بَقَرَةٌ "، إِنَّ ذَلِكَ كَانَ تَخْفِيفًا لِأَهْلِ الْيَمَنِ ثُمَّ كَانَ هَذَا بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ فَهَذَا حَدِيثٌ مَوْقُوفٌ وَمُنْقَطِعٌ وَرُوِيَ مِنْ وَجْهٍ آخَرَ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ مُنْقَطِعًا وَالْمُنْقَطِعُ لَا تَثْبُتُ بِهِ حُجَّةٌ وَمَا قَبْلَهُ أَكْثَرُ وَأَشْهَرُ وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ.
Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: In every five cattle there is one sheep, in ten cattle two sheep, in fifteen three, and in twenty cattle four sheep.
Imam al-Zuhri (may Allah have mercy on him) said: When they reach twenty-five, there is one cow up to seventy-five; when they exceed seventy-five, there are two cows up to one hundred and twenty; and when they exceed one hundred and twenty, there is one cow in every forty. Ma'mar said: Al-Zuhri said: It has reached us that their saying that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "In every thirty cattle there is a yearling calf, and in every forty cattle one cow," was a relief for the people of Yemen, and then this came after that.
So this hadith is mawquf (stopping short of the Prophet) and munqati' (with a broken chain); it has also been narrated from al-Zuhri through another chain as munqati', and a munqati' report does not establish proof. The reports before it are better known.
