1354. Abū Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "The oath is based upon what will make your companion believe you." (Sahih) [Qutaibah (one of the narrators) said: "What will make you believed by your companion."] [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Ḥadīth is Hasan Gharib. We do not know of it except as a narration of Hushaim from 'Abdullāh bin Abī Ṣāliḥ. 'Abdullāh bin Abī Ṣāliḥ is the brother of Suhail bin Abī Ṣāliḥ. This is acted upon according to some of the people of knowledge, and it is the view of Aḥmad and Ishāq. It has been reported that Ibrāhīm An-Nakha'ī said: "When the one the oath is sought from is in the wrong, then the intention is the intention of the one giving the oath. When the one the oath is sought from is being wronged, then the intention is the intention of the one who caused the oath to be sought."

١٣٥٤ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌قُتَيْبَةُ ‌وَأَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ الْمَعْنَى وَاحِدٌ قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا ‌هُشَيْمٌ ، عَنْ ‌عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي صَالِحٍ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «الْيَمِينُ عَلَى مَا يُصَدِّقُكَ بِهِ صَاحِبُكَ» وَقَالَ قُتَيْبَةُ: عَلَى مَا صَدَّقَكَ عَلَيْهِ صَاحِبُكَ. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ. وَعَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أَبِي صَالِحٍ هُوَ أَخُو سُهَيْلِ بْنِ أَبِي صَالِحٍ؛ لَا نَعْرِفُهُ إِلَّا مِنْ حَدِيثِ هُشَيْمٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي صَالِحٍ. وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا عِنْدَ بَعْضِ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ، وَبِهِ يَقُولُ أَحْمَدُ وَإِسْحَاقُ. وَرُوِيَ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ النَّخَعِيِّ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: إِذَا كَانَ الْمُسْتَحْلِفُ ظَالِمًا، فَالنِّيَّةُ نِيَّةُ الْحَالِفِ، وَإِذَا كَانَ الْمُسْتَحْلِفُ مَظْلُومًا، فَالنِّيَّةُ نِيَّةُ الَّذِي اسْتَحْلَفَ.
