Sunan at-Tirmithiy كتاب الأحكام باب ما جاء عن رسول الله فى القاضى
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الأَعْلَى الصَّنْعَانِىُّ حَدَّثَنَا الْمُعْتَمِرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ الْمَلِكِ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَوْهَبٍ أَنَّ عُثْمَانَ قَالَ لاِبْنِ عُمَرَ اذْهَبْ فَاقْضِ بَيْنَ النَّاسِ. قَالَ أَوَ تُعَافِينِى يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ. قَالَ وَمَا تَكْرَهُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ وَقَدْ كَانَ أَبُوكَ يَقْضِى قَالَ إِنِّى سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ مَنْ كَانَ قَاضِيًا فَقَضَى بِالْعَدْلِ فَبِالْحَرِىِّ أَنْ يَنْقَلِبَ مِنْهُ كَفَافًا. فَمَا أَرْجُو بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ وَفِى الْحَدِيثِ قِصَّةٌ. وَفِى الْبَابِ عَنْ أَبِى هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى حَدِيثُ ابْنِ عُمَرَ حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ وَلَيْسَ إِسْنَادُهُ عِنْدِى بِمُتَّصِلٍ. وَعَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ الَّذِى رَوَى عَنْهُ الْمُعْتَمِرُ هَذَا هُوَ عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ أَبِى جَمِيلَةَ.
'Uthmān Ibn-'Affān said to 'Abdullāh Ibn-'Umar, "Go and judge between the people." Ibn-'Umar replied, "Would you please exempt me, Leader of the Believers?" 'Uthmān asked, "What is so hateful to you about it when your father used to judge?" Ibn-'Umar said, "Indeed, I heard the Messenger of God, peace and blessings of God be upon him, say, 'Whoever is a judge, and judges fairly, should be glad if he is blameless at the end of his career.(1)' So what more do I need (to deter me from being a judge)?" Footnote (1) It is very difficult for a judge to give the right judgment at all times as humans do make mistakes. So to come out of the career as a Judge without blaming or being blamed is in itself the biggest reward. Click on ḥadīth to read more

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَخْبَرَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَمَّادٍ عَنْ أَبِى عَوَانَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الأَعْلَى الثَّعْلَبِىِّ عَنْ بِلاَلِ بْنِ مِرْدَاسٍ الْفَزَارِىِّ عَنْ خَيْثَمَةَ وَهُوَ الْبَصْرِىُّ عَنْ أَنَسٍ عَنِ النَّبِىِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ مَنِ ابْتَغَى الْقَضَاءَ وَسَأَلَ فِيهِ شُفَعَاءَ وُكِلَ إِلَى نَفْسِهِ وَمَنْ أُكْرِهَ عَلَيْهِ أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ مَلَكًا يُسَدِّدُهُ. قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ وَهُوَ أَصَحُّ مِنْ حَدِيثِ إِسْرَائِيلَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الأَعْلَى.
The Prophet, peace and blessings of God be upon him, said, "Whoever strives for an adjudicating position and solicits support [to obtain it], will be left to his own devices; and whoever is compelled [to take the position], God will send him an angel to guide him to sound judgment."
