سَأَلْتُ أَبَا الْحَسَنِ الرِّضَا ( عليه السلام ) عَنْ رِفْقَةٍ كَانُوا فِي طَرِيقٍ فَقُطِعَ عَلَيْهِمُ الطَّرِيقُ فَأَخَذُوا اللُّصُوصَ فَشَهِدَ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ قَالَ لَا تُقْبَلُ شَهَادَتُهُمْ إِلَّا بِإِقْرَارٍ مِنَ اللُّصُوصِ أَوْ شَهَادَةٍ مِنْ غَيْرِهِمْ عَلَيْهِمْ .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Muhammad Bin Al Husayn, from Ali Bin Asbaat, from Muhammad Bin Al Salt who said, ‘I asked Abu Al-Hassan Al-Reza<sup>asws</sup> about friends who were on a road, and it was cut off to them (by bandits). So the thieves were seized, so they testified against each other. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Their testimonies are not acceptable except by the confession from the thieves, or a witness from others against them’.
