حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ أَنَّ أَبَا مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيَّ قَالَ:
لَا يَنْبَغِي لِقَاضٍ أَنْ يَقْضِيَ حَتَّى يَتَبَيَّنَ لَهُ الْحَقُّ كَمَا يَتَبَيَّنُ اللَّيْلُ عَنِ النَّهَارِ. قَالَ: فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ عُمَرَ فَقَالَ: صَدَقَ أَبُو مُوسَى

"It is not befitting for a judge to judge until the truth becomes clear to him, just as the night becomes distinct from the day." He said: When that reached 'Umar, he said: "Abu Musa has spoken the truth."
