حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الرَّبِيعِ الزَّهْرَانِيُّ وَحَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حَكِيمٍ الْأَوْدِيُّ وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الْوَرْكَانِيُّ وَحَدَّثَنَا زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ يَحْيَى زحْمَوَيْهِ وَحَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَامِرِ بْنِ زُرَارَةَ الْحَضْرَمِيُّ وَحَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو الضَّبِّيُّ قَالُوا حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ عَنْ سِمَاكٍ عَنْ حَنَشٍ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ
بَعَثَنِي النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِلَى الْيَمَنِ قَاضِيًا، فَقُلْتُ: تَبْعَثُنِي إِلَى قَوْمٍ وَأَنَا حَدَثُ السِّنِّ، وَلَا عِلْمَ لِي بِالْقَضَاءِ ؟ فَوَضَعَ يَدَهُ عَلَى صَدْرِي، فَقَالَ: ثَبَّتَكَ اللهُ وَسَدَّدَكَ، إِذَا جَاءَكَ الْخَصْمَانِ، فَلَا تَقْضِ لِلْأَوَّلِ حَتَّى تَسْمَعَ مِنَ الْآخَرِ، فَإِنَّهُ أَجْدَرُ أَنْ يَبِينَ لَكَ الْقَضَاءُ، قَالَ: فَمَا زِلْتُ قَاضِيًا

✧ The Prophet ﷺ sent me to Yemen as a judge, and I said: You send me to a people while I am young in age and have no knowledge of judging? He placed his hand on my chest and said: May God make you firm and guide you. When the two litigants come to you, do not judge for the first until you have heard from the other, for it is more likely that the judgment will become clear to you. He said: And I remained a judge thereafter.
