Would the testimony that the tenant paid the full rent, considering the value of the compensation, be considered a false testimony, given that the witness did not see the payment himself?

The answer

Compensation is the right of the farmer whose crop has been partially damaged, unless the damage has also affected the land, in which case the compensation is distributed between the farmer and the landowner according to the extent of the damage sustained by each of them. The farmer may submit his case to the court to claim his right to compensation. As for the questioner's testimony that the farmer paid the full rent, while he did not witness the payment, it is not permissible and is considered false testimony.
