English translation of the principle

A ruling rejecting and invalidating the efficacy of a document for forgery. Applies to the document itself and therefore does not prevent proof that what it contains occurred by any legally admissible evidence. The reason therefor: the permissibility of multiple items of evidence to prove or negate an obligation.
Arabic original
القضاء برد وبطلان صلاحية مستند لتزويره. انصرافه إلى الورقة ذاتها فلا يحول دون إثبات حصول ما تضمنه بأي دليل مقبول قانوناً. علة ذلك: جواز تعدد الأدلة على إثبات الالتزام أو نفيه.
