It was narrated that 'Abdullāh bin Abī Bakrah, who was a governor in Sijistan, said: "Abū Bakrah wrote to me, saying: 'I heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ say: No one should pass two judgments on one issue, and no one should pass judgment between two disputing parties while he is angry.'"

5421 - أَخْبَرَنَا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ مَنْصُورِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُبَشِّرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ حُسَيْنٍ، عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ إِيَاسٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ، وَكَانَ عَامِلًا عَلَى سِجِسْتَانَ قَالَ: كَتَبَ إِلَيَّ أَبُو بَكْرَةَ يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «لَا يَقْضِيَنَّ أَحَدٌ فِي قَضَاءٍ بِقَضَاءَيْنِ، وَلَا يَقْضِي أَحَدٌ بَيْنَ خَصْمَيْنِ وَهُوَ غَضْبَانُ»
