[Machine] About Shurayh's statement, "or others from outside your community" [Surah Al-Ma'idah 106], he said, "If a man dies in a foreign land and does not find a Muslim witness, then he testifies in front of non-Muslim witnesses, their testimony is acceptable. However, if two Muslims come and testify against that, then their testimony is taken and the testimony of the non-Muslims is rejected."  

البيهقي:٢٠٦٢٩أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو نَصْرِ بْنُ قَتَادَةَ أنبأ أَبُو مَنْصُورٍ النَّضْرَوِيُّ أنبأ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ نَجْدَةَ ثنا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ ثنا خَالِدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ عَنْ دَاوُدَ عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ

عَنْ شُرَيْحٍ فِي قَوْلِهِ {أَوْ آخَرَانِ مِنْ غَيْرِكُمْ} [المائدة 106] قَالَ إِذَا مَاتَ الرَّجُلُ فِي أَرْضِ غُرْبَةٍ فَلَمْ يَجِدْ مُسْلِمًا فَأَشْهَدَ مِنْ غَيْرِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ شَاهِدَيْنِ فَشَهَادَتُهُمَا جَائِزَةٌ فَإِنْ جَاءَ مُسْلِمَانِ فَشَهِدَا بِخِلَافِ ذَلِكَ أُخِذَ بِشَهَادَةِ الْمُسْلِمَيْنِ وَرُدَّتْ شَهَادَتُهُمَا
