Question:
This questioner says: If the one to whom the oath is made sees the person taking the oath lying with his own eyes, is he required to be content with it?
Answer:
He is required to be content with it out of reverence for the oath by Allah, not out of trust in the one taking the oath. He should only show reverence, especially if the judge has ruled by the oath; you are required to accept it.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh.
