الرَّجُلِ يُدَّعَى عَلَيْهِ الْحَقُّ وَ لَيْسَ لِصَاحِبِ الْحَقِّ بَيِّنَةٌ قَالَ يُسْتَحْلَفُ الْمُدَّعَى عَلَيْهِ فَإِنْ أَبَى أَنْ يَحْلِفَ وَ قَالَ أَنَا أَرُدُّ الْيَمِينَ عَلَيْكَ لِصَاحِبِ الْحَقِّ فَإِنَّ ذَلِكَ وَاجِبٌ عَلَى صَاحِبِ الْحَقِّ أَنْ يَحْلِفَ وَ يَأْخُذَ مَالَهُ .
Translation
Humeyd Bin Ziyad, from Al Hassan Bin Muhammad Bin Sama’at, from one of his companions, from Aban, from a man, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> regarding the man who is claimed against (defendant) for the right, and there is no proof for the owner of the right. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘The defendant would swear an oath. So if he refuses to swear and says, ‘I turn the swearing of the oath upon you’, to the owner of the right, so that would be obligatory upon the owner of the right that he swears, and takes his wealth’.
