Issue: Are these conditions required in all categories of testimony?

Outward and inward uprightness is not stipulated in every case. That is, in some cases only outward uprightness is required, such as guardianship in marriage, testimony concerning it, the call to prayer, testimony establishing the beginning of Ramadan, and other cases—perhaps amounting to seven or eight categories—in which outward uprightness alone suffices.

If it is asked: Why did the jurists, may Allah Most High have mercy on them, place the division of property under the chapter of judicial rulings? We say: because the appraiser who divides it is appointed by the judge, and because he is akin to a judge.
