حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمِنْهَالِ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ خِلَاسٍ عَنْ أَبِي رَافِعٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ رَجُلَيْنِ اخْتَصَمَا فِي مَتَاعٍ إِلَی النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَيْسَ لِوَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمَا بَيِّنَةٌ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ اسْتَهِمَا عَلَی الْيَمِينِ مَا کَانَ أَحَبَّا ذَلِکَ أَوْ کَرِهَا
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 3616
Narrated Abu Hurairah: Two men disputed about some property and brought the case to the Holy Prophet ﷺ, but neither of them could produce any proof. So the Holy Prophet ﷺ said: Cast lots about the oath whatever it may be, whether they like it or dislike it.
