Chapter on Whose Testimony Must Be Rejected and Whose Testimony Must Be Accepted

730. hadíth

وَ رَوَى زُرَارَةُ عَنْ أَحَدِهِمَا عَلَيْهِمَا اَلسَّلاَمُ: فِي أَرْبَعَةٍ شَهِدُوا عَلَى اِمْرَأَةٍ بِالزِّنَا فَقَالَتْ أَنَا بِكْرٌ فَنَظَرَتْ إِلَيْهَا اَلنِّسَاءُ فَوَجَدُوهَا بِكْراً قَالَ "تُقْبَلُ شَهَادَةُ اَلنِّسَاءِ".

And Zurara narrated from one of the Imams, peace be upon them, regarding four witnesses who testified against a woman for committing adultery. She claimed that she was a virgin, so women examined her and found her to be a virgin. Imam (a.s) said: "The testimony of the women is accepted."
