23- عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ النَّوْفَلِيِّ عَنِ السَّكُونِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ قَضَى أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) فِي رَجُلَيْنِ ادَّعَيَا بَغْلَةً فَأَقَامَ أَحَدُهُمَا عَلَى صَاحِبِهِ شَاهِدَيْنِ وَالآخَرُ خَمْسَةً فَقَضَى لِصَاحِبِ الشُّهُودِ الْخَمْسَةِ خَمْسَةَ أَسْهُمٍ وَلِصَاحِبِ الشَّاهِدَيْنِ سَهْمَيْنِ. هَذَا آخِرُ كِتَابِ الْقَضَايَا وَالأحْكَامِ مِنْ كِتَابِ الْكَافِي وَيَتْلُوهُ كِتَابُ الأيْمَانِ وَالنُّذُورِ وَالْكَفَّارَاتِ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ تَعَالَى.
23. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from al-Nawfaliy from al-Sakuniy who has said the following: “This is about the case of two men who each had claimed a mule to be his mule. One of them presented two witnesses and the other one presented five witnesses. Abu ’Abd Allah عليه السلام, has said that ’Amir al-Mu’minin Ali عليه السلام, issued a judgment. It gave two shares to the one who presented two witnesses and five shares to the one who presented five witnesses.’”
