ahmad:18369al-Nuʿmān b. Bashīr > In Abū Bashīr And Hab Lī Hibah

[Machine] "My mother bears witness on you, O Messenger of Allah, so he took me by the hand and took me until we came to the Messenger of Allah, and he said, 'O Messenger of Allah, my mother asked me to give this boy a gift, so I gave it to him.' She said, 'Bear witness on it, O Messenger of Allah,' so I came to you to bear witness to you. He said, 'Do you have any other children?' He said, 'Yes.' He said, 'Did you give each of them the same as you gave him?' He said, 'No.' He said, 'Then do not bear witness for me, for I do not bear witness on injustice. Indeed, it is your duty, O father, to be just between them.'"  

أحمد:١٨٣٦٩قَالَ وَسَمِعْتُ النُّعْمَانَ بْنَ بَشِيرٍ يَقُولُ إِنَّ أَبِي بَشِيرًا وَهَبَ لِي هِبَةً فَقَالَتْ

أُمِّي أَشْهِدْ عَلَيْهَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِي فَانْطَلَقَ بِي حَتَّى أَتَيْنَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ أُمَّ هَذَا الْغُلَامِ سَأَلَتْنِي أَنْ أَهَبَ لَهُ هِبَةً فَوَهَبْتُهَا لَهُ فَقَالَتْ أَشْهِدْ عَلَيْهَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَتَيْتُكَ لِأُشْهِدَكَ فَقَالَ رُوَيْدَكَ أَلَكَ وَلَدٌ غَيْرُهُ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ كُلُّهُمْ أَعْطَيْتَهُ كَمَا أَعْطَيْتَهُ؟ قَالَ لَا قَالَ فَلَا تُشْهِدْنِي إِذًا إِنِّي لَا أَشْهَدُ عَلَى جَوْرٍ إِنَّ لِبَنِيكَ عَلَيْكَ مِنَ الْحَقِّ أَنْ تَعْدِلَ بَيْنَهُمْ

I shall not be pleased unless you call Messenger of Allah ﷺ as witness to what you confer as a gift on your son. (Nu'man said): So father took hold of my hand and I was at that time a boy, and came to Messenger of Allah ﷺ. and said: Messenger of Allah, the mother of this son (of mine), daughter of Rawaha wishes that I should call you witness to what I confer as gift to her son. Messenger of Allah (may pease be upon him) said: Bashir, have you any other son besides this (son of yours)? He said: Yes. He (the Holy Prophet) said: Have you given gifts to all of them like this? He said: No. Thereupon he (the Holy Prophet) said: Then call me not as witness, for I cannot be witness to an injustice.
