سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع عَنْ شَهَادَةِ أَهْلِ الْمِلَّةِ قَالَ فَقَالَ لَا تَجُوزُ إِلَّا عَلَى أَهْلِ مِلَّتِهِمْ فَإِنْ لَمْ تَجِدْ غَيْرَهُمْ جَازَتْ شَهَادَتُهُمْ عَلَى الْوَصِيَّةِ لِأَنَّهُ لَا يَصْلُحُ ذَهَابُ حَقِّ أَحَدٍ.

English translationMuhammad Sarwar

2. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Isa from Yunus from Zur’ah from Sama‘ah who has narrated the following: “I once asked abu ’Abd Allah (a.s.), about the testimony of members of other nations. He (the Imam) said, ‘It is admissible only against the people of their nation, however, if no one can be found to bear witness about the will (of a Muslim), then their testimony is acceptable because invalidating one’s right is not proper.’”

Translation: Muhammad Sarwar·Thaqalayn link·The Arabic above is the original.
