Hadith 207
۞
Hadith.5175 - Al-Hasan ibn Mahbub narrated from Ali ibn Ri'ab from Abu Basir from Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as), who said
"Indeed, Allah (swt), Blessed and Exalted, has ruled differently regarding your blood than He (swt) has regarding your wealth.
In matters of wealth, the ruling is that the burden of proof is upon the claimant, and the oath is upon the one against whom the claim is made.
However, in matters of blood, the ruling is that the oath is upon the claimant, and the proof is upon the one against whom the claim is made, so that the blood of a Muslim is not unjustly nullified."
5175 - رَوَى اَلْحَسَنُ بْنُ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ رِئَابٍ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ
"إِنَّ اَللَّهَ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى حَكَمَ فِي دِمَائِكُمْ بِغَيْرِ مَا حَكَمَ فِي أَمْوَالِكُمْ حَكَمَ فِي أَمْوَالِكُمْ أَنَّ اَلْبَيِّنَةَ عَلَى مَنِ اِدَّعَى وَ اَلْيَمِينَ عَلَى مَنِ اُدُّعِيَ عَلَيْهِ وَ حَكَمَ فِي دِمَائِكُمْ أَنَّ اَلْيَمِينَ عَلَى مَنِ اِدَّعَى وَ اَلْبَيِّنَةَ عَلَى مَنِ اُدُّعِيَ عَلَيْهِ لِئَلاَّ يُبْطَلَ دَمُ اِمْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ ".
