حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحِيمِ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنِ الْمُجَالِدِ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ:
مَا مِنْ حَكَمٍ يَحْكُمُ بَيْنَ النَّاسِ إِلَّا حُشِرَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَمَلَكٌ آخِذٌ بِقَفَاهُ حَتَّى يَقِفَ بِهِ عَلَى جَهَنَّمَ، ثُمَّ يَرْفَعُ رَأْسَهُ إِلَى الرَّحْمَنِ، فَإِنْ قَالَ لَهُ: اطْرَحْهُ، طَرَحَهُ فِي مَهْوَى أَرْبَعِينَ خَرِيفًا ". قَالَ: وَقَالَ مَسْرُوقٌ: " لَأَنْ أَقْضِيَ يَوْمًا آخُذُ بِحَقٍّ وَعَدْلٍ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ سَنَةٍ أَغْزُوهَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ "

"There is no judge who judges between people but that he will be gathered on the Day of Resurrection with an angel holding him by the nape of his neck until he stands him over Hell. Then he raises his head to the Most Merciful. If He says to him: Throw him, he throws him into a pit of forty autumns." He said: And Masruq said: "That I judge one day, taking by truth and justice, is more beloved to me than a year I fight in the cause of Allah."
