تسامع (شہرت یا سنی سنائی بات پر گواہی)

التسامع

Tasamu is knowledge gained by repeated report or wide repute. Testimony by repute is allowed by agreement in six matters: freeing, descent, death, marriage, patronage and endowment. Each school adds to this list: the Hanafis the dower, consummation and the appointment of a judge; the Malikis many more; the Shafi'is ownership; the Hanbalis absolute ownership, birth, divorce, khul, the endowment and its purpose. The Hanafis require the report to come from people who could not agree on a lie. ^{1 2 3 4}
