وَحَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، قَالَ قَرَأْتُ عَلَى مَالِكٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ عُثْمَانَ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عَمْرَةَ الأَنْصَارِيِّ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ، الْجُهَنِيِّ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ "‏ أَلاَ أُخْبِرُكُمْ بِخَيْرِ الشُّهَدَاءِ الَّذِي يَأْتِي بِشَهَادَتِهِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُسْأَلَهَا ‏"‏ .

বাংলা অনুবাদ
ইয়াহইয়া ইবনু ইয়াহইয়া (রহঃ) ..... যায়দ ইবনু খালিদ জুহানী (রাযিঃ) হতে বর্ণিত যে, নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেনঃ তোমাদের কি আমি উত্তম সাক্ষীদের সম্পর্কে জানাবো না? উত্তম সাক্ষী হল সে ব্যক্তি, যে সাক্ষ্য প্রদান করে, তাকে সাক্ষ্যের জন্য আহবানের আগেই। (ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশন ৪৩৪৫, ইসলামিক সেন্টার)
