حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ، وَزَائِدَةُ، وَسُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ، قَالُوا: حَدَّثَنَا سِمَاكُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، عَنْ حَنَشِ بْنِ الْمُعْتَمِرِ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ؓ، قَالَ:
لَمَّا بَعَثَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِلَى الْيَمَنِ قُلْتُ: تَبْعَثُنِي وَأَنَا حَدِيثُ السِّنِّ لَا عِلْمَ لِي بِكَثِيرٍ مِنَ الْقَضَاءِ، فَقَالَ: إِذَا أَتَاكَ الْخَصْمَانِ فَلَا تَقْضِ لِلْأَوَّلِ حَتَّى تَسْمَعَ مَا يَقُولُ الْآخَرُ، فَإِنَّكَ إِذَا سَمِعْتَ مَا يَقُولُ الْآخَرُ عَرَفْتَ كَيْفَ تَقْضِي، إِنَّ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ سَيُثَبِّتُ لِسَانَكَ وَيَهْدِي قَلْبَكَ "، قَالَ عَلِيٌّ: فَمَا زِلْتُ قَاضِيًا بَعْدُ

✧ When the Messenger of God ﷺ sent me to Yemen, I said: 'You are sending me while I am young and have little knowledge of much of judicial matters.' He said: 'When the two litigants come to you, do not judge for the first until you hear what the other says. For when you hear what the other says, you will know how to judge. God, Mighty and Majestic, will make your tongue firm and guide your heart.' Ali said: 'After that, I continued to be a judge.'
