"عَنْ أَبى عمران الجونِى، قَال: كَتَبَ عمرُ بن الخطاب إلى أَبى موسى الأشعرى أنه لَمْ يَزلْ لِلَّناسِ وجوهٌ يرفعون حوَايج الناس، فأكرم وجوهَ الناس فَبِحَسْبِ المسلم الضعيفِ من العدل أَنْ يُنْصَفَ في الحُكْمِ وَالْقِسْمَةِ".

On the authority of Abu 'Imran al-Juni, who said: 'Umar ibn al-Khattab wrote to Abu Musa al-Ash'ari: "There have always been notable people among the people who raise the needs of others, so honour the notables of the people. The weak Muslim has enough of justice in that he is given fair treatment in judgment and in distribution."
