- وَقَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنِ ابْنِ عَجْلَانَ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الزِّنَادِ قَالَ:

كُنْتُ مَعَ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ بِالْكُوفَةِ فَكَانَ يَقْضِي بِالْيَمِينِ مَعَ الشَّاهِدِ، فَأَنْكَرَ عَلَيْهِ ذَلِكَ نَاسٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكُوفَةِ، فَكَتَبَ بِهِ إِلَى عُمَرَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ ؓ، فَكَتَبَ أَنْ أَقْضِيَ بِالْيَمِينِ مَعَ الشَّاهِدِ فَقَامَ شَيْخٌ مِنْ كُبَرَائِهِمْ فَقَالَ: شَهِدْتُ شُرَيْحًا يَقْضِي بِالْيَمِينِ مَعَ الشَّاهِدِ فِي هَذَا الْمَسْجِدِ.

✧ I was with 'Abd al-Hamid in Kufa, and he used to rule by an oath along with a witness. Some people of Kufa disapproved of that, so he wrote to 'Umar b. 'Abd al-'Aziz ؓ about it. He wrote back that I should rule by an oath along with a witness. An elder among their leaders stood up and said: I witnessed Shurayh ruling by an oath along with a witness in this mosque.
