Hazrat Abu Uthman narrates that when Hazrat Abu Bakrah and his two companions testified against Hazrat Mughirah, Ziyad came. Hazrat Umar said to him: "No man shall ever testify, insha’Allah, except to the truth." He said: "I saw something astonishing and a bad gathering." Upon this, Hazrat Umar asked: "Did you see the needle enter the kohl container?" He replied: "No." Hazrat Umar then gave the order regarding them, so all of them were flogged.
