3578. It was narrated that Anas bin Mālik said: "I heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ say: 'Whoever seeks a position as judge, and seeks help for that, he will be left [to it]. Whoever does not seek it, and does not seek help for it, Allāh will send down an angel to guide him aright.'" (Da'if)

Arabic text

3578 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى، عَنْ بِلَالٍ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «مَنْ طَلَبَ الْقَضَاءَ وَاسْتَعَانَ عَلَيْهِ، وُكِلَ إِلَيْهِ، وَمَنْ لَمْ يَطْلُبْهُ وَلَمْ يَسْتَعِنْ عَلَيْهِ، أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ مَلَكًا يُسَدِّدُهُ». وَقَالَ وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى، عَنْ بِلَالِ بْنِ أَبِي مُوسَى، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وقَالَ أَبُو عَوَانَةَ: عَنْ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى، عَنْ بِلَالِ بْنِ مِرْدَاسٍ الْفَزَارِيِّ، عَنْ خَيْثَمَةَ الْبَصْرِيِّ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ
