The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) cursed the one who gives a bribe and the one who receives a bribe to influence a Judgment Were people to be given everything that they claimed, some men would (unjustly) claim the properties and blood of (other) people. However, the onus of proof is on the plaintiff and the oath is upon the one who denies the claim The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) heard voices arguing at the door of his house. If anyone takes a false oath in order to seize the wealth of a Muslim unlawfully, he will meet Allah when He is angry with him If a judge issues a ruling, having tried his best to decide correctly, and his ruling is right, he will have a double reward, but if he issues a ruling, having tried his best to decide correctly, and his ruling is wrong, he will have a single reward Shall I not inform you who the best witness is? He is the one who gives his testimony before he is asked for it Anyone who takes a false oath at this pulpit of mine, even concerning a green tooth-stick, will surely occupy his seat in Hell Let no one judge between two people while being angry. A man bought a piece of land from another man, and the one who bought the land found in his land a jar containing gold There were two women, each had her son with her. A wolf came and took away the son of one of them The testimony of a Bedouin against a city dweller is not permissible The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) issued judgments based on an oath and a witness The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) suggested to some people that they should take an oath. When they hurried to do so, he said that lots should be cast to decide which of them should take the oath
