O you who believe! When death approaches any of you. and you make a bequest. then take the testimony of two just men of your own folk or two others from outside. if you are travelling through the land and the calamity of death befalls you. Detain them both after As-Salat (the prayer). (then) if you are in doubt (about their truthfulness). let them both swear by Allah (saying): "We wish not for any worldly gain in this. even though he (the beneficiary) be our near relative. We shall not hide Testimony of Allah. for then indeed we should be of the sinful." |

Let there be witnesses between you when death draweth nigh unto one of you. at the time of bequest - two witnesses. just men from among you. or two others from another tribe. in case ye are campaigning in the land and the calamity of death befall you. Ye shall empanel them both after the prayer. and. if ye doubt. they shall be made to swear by Allah (saying): We will not take a bribe. even though it were (on behalf of) a near kinsman nor will we hide the testimony of Allah. for then indeed we should be of the sinful. |

O ye who believe! When death approaches any of you. (take) witnesses among yourselves when making bequests.- two just men of your own (brotherhood) or others from outside if ye are journeying through the earth. and the chance of death befalls you (thus). If ye doubt (their truth). detain them both after prayer. and let them both swear by Allah: "We wish not in this for any worldly gain. even though the (beneficiary) be our near relation: we shall hide not the evidence before Allah: if we do. then behold! the sin be upon us!" |
