حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْكَرِيمِ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ قَالَ:
قَالَ عُمَرُ لِعَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ: أَرَأَيْتَ لَوْ كُنْتَ الْقَاضِيَ وَالْوَالِيَ ثُمَّ أَبْصَرْتَ إِنْسَانًا عَلَى حَدٍّ، أَكُنْتَ مُقِيمًا عَلَيْهِ ؟ قَالَ: لَا، حَتَّى يَشْهَدَ مَعِي غَيْرِي، قَالَ: أَصَبْتَ، وَلَوْ قُلْتَ غَيْرَ ذَلِكَ لَمْ تُجِدْ

'Umar said to 'Abd al-Rahman ibn 'Awf: 'Tell me, if you were the judge and the governor, and then you saw a person committing a hadd offense, would you enforce it upon him?' He said: 'No, not until someone other than me testifies with me.' He said: 'You are right, and if you had said otherwise, you would not have found (the right answer).'
