The Prophet (ﷺ) said: Judges are of three types, one of whom will go to Paradise
and two to Hell. The one who will go to Paradise is a man who knows what is
right and gives judgment accordingly; but a man who knows what is right and acts
tyrannically in his judgment will go to Hell; and a man who gives judgment for
people when he is ignorant will go to Hell.
Abu Dawud said: On this subject this is the soundest tradition, that is, the
tradition of Ibn Buraidah: Judges are of three types.

The Prophet (ﷺ) said: O people, if any of you is put in an administrative post
on our behalf and conceals from us a needle or more, he is acting unfaithfully,
and will bring it on the Day of Resurrection. A black man from the Ansar, as if
I am seeing him, stood and said: Messenger of Allah, take back from me my post.
He asked: What is that? He replied: I heard you say such and such. He said: And

with it, both little and much. What he is given, he may take, and he must
refrain from what is kept away from him.

When two litigants sit in front of you, do not decide till you hear what the
other has to say as you heard what the first had to say; for it is best that you
should have a clear idea of the best decision. He said: I had been a judge (for

فِي طَرِيقٍ فَاجْعَلُوهُ سَبْعَةَ أَذْرُعٍ " .
