Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is justice required of the doctors who testify regarding the patient's condition?

Answer:
Yes, it is required that he be Muslim. He says: A Muslim doctor. Even a disbeliever's testimony is not accepted in this matter because he is not to be trusted. So he must be a Muslim who does not commit what would make him an open sinner; he does not do anything that would make him an open sinner. Yes.
