[4490] 16 - (1717) It was narrated that 'Abdur-Raḥmān bin Abī Bakrah said: My father wrote - and I wrote it down for him - to 'Ubaidullâh bin Abî Bakrah, who was the Qâzî of Sijistan, (telling him): Do not pass judgment between two people when you are angry, for I heard the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ say: "No one should pass judgment between two people when he is angry."

Arabic text

16 - (1717) حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ، قَالَ: كَتَبَ أَبِي، وَكَتَبْتُ لَهُ إِلَى عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ، وَهُوَ قَاضٍ بِسِجِسْتَانَ، أَنْ لَا تَحْكُمَ بَيْنَ اثْنَيْنِ وَأَنْتَ غَضْبَانُ، فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «لَا يَحْكُمْ أَحَدٌ بَيْنَ اثْنَيْنِ وَهُوَ غَضْبَانُ»،
