“Or two others from outside your group” (al-Māʾidah 5:106) appears in instructions concerning testimony in relation to a bequest and travel.
Some juristic readings compare this with general witness requirements and classify it as abrogated. Another reading retains a special-case scope, especially where normal witnesses are unavailable or circumstances of travel require a different arrangement.
A general evidentiary rule and a narrowly conditioned exception need not be contradictory. The interpreter must first establish what the exception actually covers; a technical claim of abrogation cannot rest on the mere fact of difference.
