رَجُلٍ ادَّعَى عَلَى امْرَأَةٍ أَنَّهُ تَزَوَّجَهَا بِوَلِيٍّ وَ شُهُودٍ وَ أَنْكَرَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ ذَلِكَ فَأَقَامَتْ أُخْتُ هَذِهِ الْمَرْأَةِ عَلَى هَذَا الرَّجُلِ الْبَيِّنَةَ أَنَّهُ قَدْ تَزَوَّجَهَا بِوَلِيٍّ وَ شُهُودٍ وَ لَمْ يُوَقِّتَا وَقْتاً فَكَتَبَ أَنَّ الْبَيِّنَةَ بَيِّنَةُ الرَّجُلِ وَ لَا تُقْبَلُ بَيِّنَةُ الْمَرْأَةِ لِأَنَّ الزَّوْجَ قَدِ اسْتَحَقَّ بُضْعَ هَذِهِ الْمَرْأَةِ وَ تُرِيدُ أُخْتُهَا فَسَادَ النِّكَاحِ وَ لَا تُصَدَّقُ وَ لَا تُقْبَلُ بَيِّنَتُهَا إِلَّا بِوَقْتٍ قَبْلَ وَقْتِهَا أَوْ بِدُخُولٍ بِهَا .
Translation
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, and Ali Bin Muhammad Al Qasany, from Al Qasim Bin Muhammad, from Suleyman Bin Dawood, from Isa Bin Yunus, from Al Awzaie, from Al Zuhry, (It has been narrated) from Ali<sup>asws</sup> Bin Al-Husayn<sup>asws</sup> regarding a man who claimed upon a woman that he had married with (approval of) a guardian and witnesses, and the woman denied that. So the sister of this woman established the proof upon this man that he had married her with (approval of) a guardian and witnesses, but could not determine the timing of it. So he<sup>asws</sup> wrote: ‘The (admissible) proof is the proof of the man, and the proof of the woman is not acceptable because the husband is more rightful with conjugal relations with this woman, and her sister wants the spoiling of the marriage and should not be ratified, nor would her proof be acceptable with a timing before her time, or (before) he had copulated with her’.
