English translation of the principle

Recording the names of the judges who rendered the judgment in its preamble. The omission of those judges' names from the hearing minutes does not render it defective. - The contrary of what appears in the judgment's preamble after hearing the pleadings may not be established except by a challenge alleging forgery. - The judgment is not defective if it ascertained that the panel that heard the pleadings was the one that rendered it, relying on a letter from the President of the Court of First Instance.
Arabic original
إثبات أسماء القضاة الذين أصدروا الحكم في ديباجته. لا يعيبه خلو محضر الجلسة من أسماء هؤلاء القضاة. - لا يجوز إثبات عكس ما جاء بديباجة الحكم بعد سماع المرافعة إلا بطريق الطعن بالتزوير. - لا يعيب الحكم إن هو تحقق من أن الهيئة التي سمعت المرافعة هي التي أصدرته استناداً إلى كتاب رئيس المحكمة الكلية.
