حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ عُمَرَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَاشِدٍ حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ مُوسَی عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَدَّ شَهَادَةَ الْخَائِنِ وَالْخَائِنَةِ وَذِي الْغِمْرِ عَلَی أَخِيهِ وَرَدَّ شَهَادَةَ الْقَانِعِ لِأَهْلِ الْبَيْتِ وَأَجَازَهَا لِغَيْرِهِمْ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد الْغِمْرُ الْحِنَةُ وَالشَّحْنَائُ وَالْقَانِعُ الْأَجِيرُ التَّابِعُ مِثْلُ الْأَجِيرِ الْخَاصِّ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 3600
Amr bin Shuaib on his father's authority told that his grandfather said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ rejected the testimony of a deceitful man and woman, of one who harbours rancour against his brother, and he rejected the testimony of one who is dependent on a family, and he allowed his testimony for other. Abu Dawud said: Ghimr means malice and enimity ; qani (dependant), a subordinate servant like a special servant.
