2313 - حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ، عَنْ خَالِهِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَعْنَةُ اللَّهِ عَلَى الرَّاشِي وَالْمُرْتَشِي»

Commentary
The dishonesty of bribery occurs when a person despite being wrong, wants the decision to be made in his favor; thus the one who bribes, deprives a rightful person of his right and also makes the judge sinful. This twofold sin deprives him of the mercy of Allāh.
