Testimony regarding a sale and the lack of knowledge of the parties
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The court asks some people to testify to the sale of a house or land. Everything is correct and clear, and it is documented with a deed, and the identification cards of the seller and the buyer are present, but I do not know anyone from either party. Is this from false testimony?
Answer:
By Allah, matters of the judiciary are not our concern; these are the concern of the Ministry of Justice. There are specialized bodies for looking into appeals, and the Supreme Judicial Council looks into these matters. And if something is difficult for the judge, he asks the ministry.
