حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ أَبِي عَوْنٍ عَنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ عَمْرِو ابْنِ أَخِي الْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ شُعْبَةَ عَنْ نَاسٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ مُعَاذٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ حِمْصٍ عَنْ مُعَاذٍ
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ حِينَ بَعَثَهُ إِلَى الْيَمَنِ فَقَالَ: كَيْفَ تَصْنَعُ إِنْ عَرَضَ لَكَ قَضَاءٌ ؟ قَالَ: أَقْضِي بِمَا فِي كِتَابِ اللهِ. قَالَ: فَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ فِي كِتَابِ اللهِ ؟ قَالَ: فَسُنَّةُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ. قَالَ: فَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ فِي سُنَّةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ؟ قَالَ: أَجْتَهِدُ رَأْيِي لَا آلُو. قَالَ: فَضَرَبَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ صَدْرِي ثُمَّ قَالَ: الْحَمْدُ لِلهِ الَّذِي وَفَّقَ رَسُولَ رَسُولِ اللهِ لِمَا يُرْضِي رَسُولَ اللهِ

✧ That the Messenger of God ﷺ, when he sent him to Yemen, said, 'How will you judge if a case comes before you?' He said, 'I will judge by what is in the Book of God.' He said, 'And if it is not in the Book of God?' He said, 'Then by the Sunnah of the Messenger of God ﷺ.' He said, 'And if it is not in the Sunnah of the Messenger of God?' He said, 'I will exercise my own judgment and spare no effort.' He said, Then the Messenger of God ﷺ struck my chest and said, 'Praise be to God who has guided the messenger of the Messenger of God to what pleases the Messenger of God.'
