Bukhārī Section 93.21If a judge has to witness in favour of a litigant

[Machine] And Shurayh Al-Qadi said, and a man asked him for a testimony, so he said, "Go to the prince until he testifies for you." And Ikrimeh said, Umar said to Abdul Rahman ibn Auf, "If you see someone committing adultery or theft and you are the prince, your testimony is the testimony of a man from the Muslims." He said, "You speak the truth." Umar said, "If it were not for people saying that Umar added to the Book of Allah, I would have written the verse of stoning with my own hands." And Ma'iz confessed to adultery in front of the Prophet ﷺ four times, so he ordered his stoning, and it was not mentioned that the Prophet ﷺ sought testimony from those present. And Hammad said, "If a person confesses in front of the judge once, he is stoned." And the judge said, "Four times."
