حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ زَائِدَةَ عَنْ سِمَاكٍ عَنْ حَنَشٍ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ قَالَ لِي النَّبِيُّ ﷺ
إِذَا تَقَدَّمَ إِلَيْكَ خَصْمَانِ، فَلَا تَسْمَعْ كَلَامَ الْأَوَّلِ حَتَّى تَسْمَعَ كَلَامَ الْآخَرِ، فَسَوْفَ تَرَى كَيْفَ تَقْضِي. قَالَ: فَقَالَ عَلِيٌّ: فَمَا زِلْتُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ قَاضِيًا
