Is the majority cited as evidence for the acceptance of the truth?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is the majority cited as evidence for the acceptance of the truth?

Answer:
The majority is not evidence. Evidence is known by the meaning of the premise and its legal proofs, not by the number of people:
And most of the people, although you strive [for it], are not believers.وَمَا أَكْثَرُ النَّاسِ وَلَوْ حَرَصْتَ بِمُؤْمِنِينَ
[Yusuf: 103].
