حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ فُضَيْلٍ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ كُلَيْبٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ كَعْبٍ قَالَ:
بِعْتُ بَغْلَةً مِنْ رَجُلٍ، فَلَبِثَ [١]مَا شَاءَ اللهُ، فَأَتَانِي وَقَدْ عَرَفْتُ الْبَغْلَةَ عِنْدَهُ. فَأَتَيْنَا شُرَيْحًا، وَانْطَلَقْتُ بِالدَّابَّةِ، فَأَقَامَ سَبْعَةً مِنَ الشُّهُودِ أَنَّهَا دَابَّتُهُ، لَمْ تُبَعْ وَلَمْ تُوهَبْ [٢]. وَجَاءَ الْآخَرُ بِسِتَّةٍ مِنَ الشُّهُودِ أَنَّهَا دَابَّتُهُ لَمْ تُبَعْ وَلَمْ تُوهَبْ [٣]، فَقَالَ شُرَيْحٌ: أَشْهَدُ بِأَنَّ [٤]أَحَدَ الْفَرِيقَيْنِ كَاذِبٌ، فَقَسَمَهَا بَيْنَهُمْ عَلَى ثَلَاثَةَ عَشَرَ سَهْمًا [٥]أَعْطَى كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمْ [٦]بِحِصَّةِ شُهُودِهِ

"I sold a mule to a man, and he kept it for as long as Allah willed. Then he came to me, and I had recognized the mule in his possession. We went to Shurayh, and I brought the animal with me. Seven witnesses testified that it was his animal, that it had not been sold and had not been given away [2]. The other came with six witnesses that it was his animal, that it had not been sold and had not been given away [3]. Shurayh said: 'I testify that one of the two parties is lying.' So he divided it between them into thirteen shares [5], giving each of them a share equal to his witnesses [6]."
