حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْقَطَّانُ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَجْلَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ
أَنَّ عَبْدَ الْحَمِيدِ كَانَ يَقْضِي بِالْيَمِينِ بِالْكُوفَةِ مَعَ الشَّاهِدِ، قَالَ: فَأَنْكَرَ ذَلِكَ عَلَيْهِ نَاسٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكُوفَةِ، فَكَتَبَ إِلَى عُمَرَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ فَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ: أَنْ يَقْضِيَ بِالْيَمِينِ مَعَ الشَّاهِدِ، فَقَالَ شَيْخٌ مِنْ مَشْيَخَتِهِمْ - أَوْ قَالَ: مِنْ كُبَرَائِهِمْ -: شَهِدْتُ شُرَيْحًا يَقْضِي بِالْيَمِينِ مَعَ الشَّاهِدِ

That 'Abd al-Hamid used to judge by the oath together with the witness in Kufa. He said: Some people of Kufa denounced this to him, so he wrote to 'Umar ibn 'Abd al-'Aziz, and he wrote to him that he should judge by the oath together with the witness. An elder among their elders - or he said: among their great men - said: I saw Shurayh judging by the oath together with the witness.
