Yahya said that Malik had said from Da'ud ibn al-Husayn that heheard Abu Ghatafan ibn Tarif al-Muriyi say, "Zayd ibn Thabit al-Ansariand Ibn Muti had a dispute about a house which they shared. They wentto Marwan ibn al-Hakam who was the Amir of Madina. Marwan decided thatZayd ibn Thabit must take an oath on the mimbar. Zayd ibn Thabit said,'I swear to it where I am.' Marwan said, 'No, by Allah! only in theplace of sorting out claims (i.e. the mimbar).' Zayd ibn Thabit beganto take an oath that his right was true, and he refused to take anoath near the mimbar. Marwan ibn al-Hakam began to wonder at that." Malik said, "I do not think that anyone should be made totake an oath near the mimbar for less than a fourth of a dinar, andthat is three dirhams."

Yahya said, "Malik related to us from Ibn Shihab from Sa'id ibnal-Musayyab that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and granthim peace, said, 'The pledge given as security is not forfeited.' " Malik said, "The explanation of that according to what wethink - and Allah knows best - is that a man gives a pledge tosomebody in security for something. The pledge is superior to that forwhich he pawned it. The pledger says to the pawn-broker, 'I will bringyou your due, after such-and-such a time. If not, the pledge is yoursfor what it was pawned for.' " Malik said, "This transactionis not good and it is not halal. This is what was forbidden. If theowner brings what he pledged it for after the period, it is his. Ithink that the time condition is void." Translation Not Available

Malik related to me from Ibn Shihab that Abd al-Malik ibn Marwangave a judgment that the rapist had to pay the raped woman her bride-price. Yahya said that he heard Malik say, "What is done inour community about the man who rapes a woman, virgin or non-virgin,if she is free, is that he must pay the bride-price of the like ofher. If she is a slave, he must pay what he has diminished of herworth. The hadd-punishment in such cases is applied to the rapist, andthere is no punishment applied to the raped woman. If the rapist is aslave, that is against his master unless he wishes to surrender him." Translation Not Available

Yahya related to me from Malik from Zayd ibn Aslam that theMessenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Ifsomeone changes his deen - strike his neck!" The meaning ofthe statement of the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,in our opinion and Allah knows best, is that "if someone changes hisdeen, strike his neck!" refers to those who leave Islam for other thanit - like the heretics and their like, about whom it is known. Theyare killed without being called to tawba because their tawba is notrecognised. They were hiding their kufr and publishing their Islam, soI do not think that one calls such people to tawba, and one does notaccept their word. As for the one who goes out of Islam to somethingelse and divulges it, one calls him to tawba. If he does not turn intawba, he is killed. If there are people in that situation, I thinkthat one should call them to Islam and call them to tawba. If theyturn in tawba, that is accepted from them. If they do not turn intawba, they are killed. That does not refer as we see it, and Allahknows best, to those who come out of Judaism to Christianity or fromChristianity to Judaism, nor to someone who changes his deen from thevarious forms of deen except for Islam. Whoever comes out of Islam toother than it and divulges that, that is the one who is referred to,and Allah knows best! Translation Not Available
