Jami at-Tirmidhi 1345 (Book 15, Hadith 25) #26923
Judgement Based on an Oath and One Witness

SUMMARY: The Prophet ﷺ passed judgement based on an oath along with one witness, and 'Ali judged between people using the same method.

Ja'far bin Muhammad narrated from his father: "The Prophet passed judgement based on an oath along with one witness". He said: "And 'Ali judged between you based on it".
حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ قَضَى بِالْيَمِينِ مَعَ الشَّاهِدِ الْوَاحِدِ ‏.‏ قَالَ وَقَضَى بِهَا عَلِيٌّ فِيكُمْ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى وَهَذَا أَصَحُّ وَهَكَذَا رَوَى سُفْيَانُ الثَّوْرِيُّ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ مُرْسَلاً ‏.‏ وَرَوَى عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ وَيَحْيَى بْنُ سُلَيْمٍ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ‏.‏ وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا عِنْدَ بَعْضِ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ وَغَيْرِهِمْ رَأَوْا أَنَّ الْيَمِينَ مَعَ الشَّاهِدِ الْوَاحِدِ جَائِزٌ فِي الْحُقُوقِ وَالأَمْوَالِ ‏.‏ وَهُوَ قَوْلُ مَالِكِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ وَالشَّافِعِيِّ وَأَحْمَدَ وَإِسْحَاقَ وَقَالُوا لاَ يُقْضَى بِالْيَمِينِ مَعَ الشَّاهِدِ الْوَاحِدِ إِلاَّ فِي الْحُقُوقِ وَالأَمْوَالِ ‏.‏ وَلَمْ يَرَ بَعْضُ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكُوفَةِ وَغَيْرِهِمْ أَنْ يُقْضَى بِالْيَمِينِ مَعَ الشَّاهِدِ الْوَاحِدِ

QUICK LESSONS:
Tell the truth when giving testimony or taking an oath in court .

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about how the Prophet (ﷺ) and 'Ali used to pass judgements in certain cases. It was done by taking an oath from a person, as well as having a witness present to testify that the person is telling the truth. This shows us that justice should be served fairly, even if there are not enough witnesses or evidence available for a case. It also teaches us that we should always tell the truth when giving testimony or taking an oath in court, so justice can be served properly.
