حَدَّثَنَا أَسْوَدُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ عَنْ سِمَاكٍ عَنْ حَنَشٍ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ
بَعَثَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِلَى الْيَمَنِ قَالَ: فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، تَبْعَثُنِي إِلَى قَوْمٍ أَسَنَّ مِنِّي، وَأَنَا حَدَثٌ لَا أُبْصِرُ الْقَضَاءَ ؟ قَالَ: فَوَضَعَ يَدَهُ عَلَى صَدْرِي، وَقَالَ: اللَّهُمَّ ثَبِّتْ لِسَانَهُ، وَاهْدِ قَلْبَهُ، يَا عَلِيُّ، إِذَا جَلَسَ إِلَيْكَ الْخَصْمَانِ، فَلَا تَقْضِ بَيْنَهُمَا حَتَّى تَسْمَعَ مِنَ الْآخَرِ كَمَا سَمِعْتَ مِنَ الْأَوَّلِ، فَإِنَّكَ إِذَا فَعَلْتَ ذَلِكَ تَبَيَّنَ لَكَ الْقَضَاءُ، قَالَ: فَمَا اخْتَلَفَ عَلَيَّ قَضَاءٌ بَعْدُ، أَوْ مَا أَشْكَلَ عَلَيَّ قَضَاءٌ بَعْدُ

✧ The Messenger of God ﷺ sent me to Yemen. I said, “O Messenger of God, you are sending me to people older than me, while I am young and cannot discern judicial matters?” He placed his hand on my chest and said, “O God, make his tongue firm and guide his heart. O Ali, when two disputants sit before you, do not judge between them until you have heard from the other as you heard from the first. If you do that, the judgment will become clear to you.” He said, “No judgment ever became confused for me after that—or no judgment ever became unclear to me after that.”
