English translation

3706. It was narrated from An-Nu'mân bin Bashîr that his father gave him a present, and his mother said: "Ask the Prophet ﷺ to bear witness to what you have given to my son." So he came to the Prophet ﷺ and told him about that, and the Prophet ﷺ did not want to bear witness to it. (Sahîh)

Arabic text

3676 - أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنْ هِشَامٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ: أَنَّ أَبَاهُ نَحَلَهُ نُحْلًا، فَقَالَتْ لَهُ أُمُّهُ: أَشْهِدِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى مَا نَحَلْتَ ابْنِي، فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ لَهُ، «فَكَرِهَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يَشْهَدَ لَهُ»

Commentary

1. In order to make him (the Prophet ﷺ) a witness lest other sons might begin to dispute it in future. 2. (The Prophet ﷺ) did not like to bear witness over it because it was an injustice, and to bear witness over injustice is synonymous with participation in the act of injustice.
