Testifying for witnesses whose lies are known
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q2: I testified for two witnesses regarding a piece of land, stating that it had been cultivated before the year 1385 AH, and I know that they are not truthful, as the person who currently owns the land bought it from another person. What is my obligation, given that a legal deed has been issued for the current owner?
A2: It is obligatory to repent to Allah the Exalted, because false testimony is a major sin among the major sins, and a severe warning has come regarding it. It is obligatory for you to inform the judge before whom you gave this false testimony so that he may take the necessary measures regarding it.
