The Sufficient (Vol 7) · Hadith 752 (#Ḥadīth #6)

6- مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ إِذَا ادُّعِيَ عَلَيْكَ مَالٌ وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ عَلَيْكَ فَأَرَادَ أَنْ يُحَلِّفَكَ فَإِنْ بَلَغَ مِقْدَارَ ثَلاثِينَ دِرْهَماً فَأَعْطِهِ وَلا تَحْلِفْ وَإِنْ كَانَ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ فَاحْلِفْ وَلا تُعْطِهِ.

6. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn ‘Isa from Ali ibn al-Hakam from certain persons of our people who has narrated the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah , has said, ‘If someone brings a claim against you for a certain amount of assets which you do not owe to him, and he wants to make you to take an oath, if it is less than thirty dirham, you must pay and must not take an oath, but if it is more than that you can take an oath and do not give the asset.’”
