The Dispute Between Creditor and Debtor and the Absence of Evidence for Both
If a creditor and debtor disagree and there is no evidence for either of them, how do we rule between them?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: If there is no evidence from the plaintiff, we turn to the statement of the defendant with an oath; because the evidence is on the plaintiff and the oath is on the one who denies, and God knows best.
