"I was told that Bashir bin Sa'd came to the Messenger of Allah and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, my wife 'Amrah bint Rawahah told me to give a gift to her son Nu'man, and she told me to ask you to bear witness to that.' The Prophet said: 'Do you have any other children?' He said: 'Yes.' He said: 'Have you given them something like that which you have given to this one?' He said: 'No.' He said: 'Then do not ask me to bear witness to unfairness.'"

أَنَّ بَشِيرَ بْنَ سَعْدٍ أَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ امْرَأَتِي عَمْرَةَ بِنْتَ رَوَاحَةَ أَمَرَتْنِي أَنْ أَتَصَدَّقَ عَلَى ابْنِهَا نُعْمَانَ بِصَدَقَةٍ وَأَمَرَتْنِي أَنْ أُشْهِدَكَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ هَلْ لَكَ بَنُونَ سِوَاهُ قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَأَعْطَيْتَهُمْ مِثْلَ مَا أَعْطَيْتَ لِهَذَا قَالَ لاَ قَالَ فَلاَ تُشْهِدْنِي عَلَى جَوْرٍ

[Machine] Indeed, my father, Bashir ibn Saad, came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, the daughter of Rawaha gave birth to a boy, and I named him Nu'man. She refused to raise him until I made a garden for him as a gift, which is the best of my wealth." She said, "Bear witness, O Prophet ﷺ ." The Prophet ﷺ said to him, "Do you have any other children?" He replied, "Yes." He said, "Do not bear witness to me except for justice, for I do not bear witness to injustice."
