Al-Kāfi - The Book of Adjudication and Rules

Al-Kāfi - The Book of Adjudication and Rules Chapter: If one Agrees with an Oath that is Taken, it Dismisses his Claim even if he has Testimony 3- عَلِيٌّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْ٠َّادٍ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِي٠َ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْحَ٠ِيدِ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِهِ فِي الرَّجُلِ يَكُونُ لَهُ عَلَى الرَّجُلِ الْ٠َالُ فَيَجْحَدُهُ فَيَحْلِفُ لَهُ يَ٠ِينَ صَبْرٍ أَلَهُ عَلَيْهِ شَيْ‏ءٌ قَالَ لَيْسَ لَهُ أَنْ يَطْلُبَ ٠ِنْهُ وَكَذَلِكَ إِنِ احْتَسَبَهُ عِنْدَ اللهِ فَلَيْسَ لَهُ أَنْ يَطْلُبَهُ ٠3.

Ali has narrated from his father from ‘Abd al-Rahman ibn Hammad from Ibrahim ibn ‘Abd al-Hamid from certain persons of his people who has narrated the following: “This is about the case of a man to whom another man owes a certain amount of assets who denies and takes an oath that he does not owe him anything; if he (plaintiff) must be content with it or there is any remedy for him?

He (the Imam) (a.s.), has said, ‘He does not have any right thereafter and so also is the case if he (plaintiff) waives it for the sake of Allah, he does not have any right to ask for it anymore.’” رسل - Allamah Baqir al-Majlisi (Mirʾāt al-ʿUqūl fī Sharḥ Akhbār Āl al-Rasūl (24/286))
