Decisions Based on Oaths and Witnesses

SUMMARY: The Messenger of Allah gave a decision based on an oath and a single witness.

Ibn 'Abbas said: The Messenger of Allah gave a decision on the basis of an oath and a single witness.
حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَالْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، أَنَّ زَيْدَ بْنَ الْحُبَابِ، حَدَّثَهُمْ حَدَّثَنَا سَيْفٌ الْمَكِّيُّ، - قَالَ عُثْمَانُ سَيْفُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ - عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ دِينَارٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَضَى بِيَمِينٍ وَشَاهِدٍ

Make decisions based on an oath and a single witness

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the importance of making decisions based on an oath and a single witness. An oath is when someone swears to tell the truth or to do something. A witness is someone who can testify that something happened or that something is true. The Messenger of Allah taught us that decisions should be made based on these two things in order to ensure justice for all involved parties. This hadith emphasizes the importance of truthfulness and honesty in our dealings with others as well as how important it is to have reliable witnesses when making decisions. It also teaches us that we should always strive for justice in our dealings with others so that everyone can be treated fairly and equally under the law.
