Qurʾān Bukhārī Muslim Nasāʾī Abū Dāwūd Tirmidhī Ibn Mājah Mālik Aḥmad Dārimī Ḥākim Ibn Ḥibbān Ṭabarānī Nasāʾī's Kubrá Bayhaqī al-Luʾluʾ wa-al-Marjān Ibn Rajab's Fifty Riyāḍ al-Ṣāliḥīn Aḥmad's Zuhd Suyūṭī
bayhaqi:20516 – Abū ʿAbdullāh al-Ḥāfiẓ > al-Ustādh Abū al-Walīd > Ibrāhīm b. Abū Ṭālib And Muḥammad b. Isḥāq > ʿAbdah b. ʿAbdullāh al-Khuzāʿī > Zayd b. al-Ḥubāb > Muḥammad b. Zurārah b. ʿAbdullāh b. Khuzaymah b. Thābit > ʿUmārah b. Khuzaymah > Abīh Khuzaymah b. Thābit

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ bought a horse from Sawwa ibn Al-Harith Al-Muharibi, but he denied it. Khuzaymah ibn Thabit testified on his behalf, so the Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked him, "What led you to testify even though you were not there?" He replied, "You spoke the truth, O Messenger of Allah, but I believed you and I knew that you do not speak except the truth." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then said, "Whoever testifies for or against someone, his testimony is sufficient." Al-Shafi'i, may Allah have mercy on him, said, "If it were definite, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ would not have given his pledge without clear evidence."  

البيهقي:٢٠٥١٦ – أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ أنبأ الْأُسْتَاذُ أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ ثنا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ قَالَا ثنا عَبْدَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْخُزَاعِيُّ ثنا زَيْدُ بْنُ الْحُبَابِ حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ زُرَارَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ خُزَيْمَةَ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ حَدَّثَنِي عُمَارَةُ بْنُ خُزَيْمَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ خُزَيْمَةَ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ ؓ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ ابْتَاعَ مِنْ سَوَاءِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ الْمُحَارِبِيِّ فَرَسًا فَجَحَدَ فَشَهِدَ لَهُ خُزَيْمَةُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَا حَمَلَكَ عَلَى الشَّهَادَةِ وَلَمْ تَكُنْ مَعَهُ؟ قَالَ صَدَقْتَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَلَكِنْ صَدَّقْتُكَ بِمَا قُلْتَ وَعَرَفْتُ أَنَّكَ لَا تَقُولُ إِلَّا حَقًّا فَقَالَ مَنْ شَهِدَ لَهُ خُزَيْمَةُ أَوْ شَهِدَ عَلَيْهِ فَهُوَ حَسْبُهُ قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ فَلَوْ كَانَ حَتْمًا لَمْ يُبَايِعْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِلَا بَيِّنَةٍ
