Chapter on the Invalidation of the Claimant's Right by Administering an Oath Even if They Have Evidence

Hadith #2

قَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ: "مَنْ حَلَفَ لَكُمْ بِاللَّهِ عَلَى حَقٍّ فَصَدِّقُوهُ وَ مَنْ سَأَلَكُمْ بِاللَّهِ فَأَعْطُوهُ ذَهَبَتِ اَلْيَمِينُ بِدَعْوَى اَلْمُدَّعِي وَ لاَ دَعْوَى لَهُ".

The Messenger of Allah , peace and blessings be upon him and his family, said: "Whoever swears to you by Allah regarding a right, then believe him, and whoever asks you in the name of Allah , then give him. The oath is for the claimant, and there is no claim for him without it."
