"عن عكرمَة قال: قال عمرُ لعبد الرحمن بن عوفٍ: أرأيتَ لو كنت القاضِىَ والوالىَ ثم أبصرت إنسانًا على حَدٍّ أَكنتَ مُقِيمًا عليه؟ قال لا، حتى يَشْهَدَ غيرى، قال: أصبتَ ولو قلتَ غيرَ ذَلِك لم تجد".

"On the authority of 'Ikrimah, he said: 'Umar said to 'Abd al-Rahman ibn 'Awf: Tell me, if you were the judge and the governor, and you saw a man committing a hadd offence, would you carry out the punishment on him? He said: No, not until someone else witnesses it. He said: You are right, and if you had said otherwise, you would not have found (anyone to agree with you)."
