حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، حَدَّثَنَا مُجَالِدٌ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ الشَّعْبِيَّ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ النُّعْمَانَ بْنَ بَشِيرٍ، يَقُولُ:، وَكَانَ أَمِيرًا عَلَى الْكُوفَةِ، نَحَلَنِي أَبِي غُلَامًا، فَأَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، لِأُشْهِدَهُ فَقَالَ: " أَكُلَّ وَلَدِكَ نَحَلْتَ؟ " قَالَ: لَا، قَالَ: " فَإِنِّي لَا أَشْهَدُ عَلَى جَوْرٍ " (١)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Nu'man (may Allah be pleased with him) that his father gave him a gift, then his father went to the service of the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) and asked him to be a witness to it. The Holy Prophet (ﷺ) said to him, "Have you given all your sons the same as you have given to him?" He replied, "No." So the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Do not make me a witness to this, for I cannot be a witness to injustice."
