1322. Anas bin Mālik narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: “Whoever asks for a postion as a judge, then he is left on his own. And whoever is forced into it, Allāh sends an angel down to him so that he can be correct.” (Da’if)
١٣٢٣ - حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ ، عَنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى ، عَنْ بِلَالِ بْنِ أَبِي مُوسَى ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَنْ سَأَلَ الْقَضَاءَ وُكِلَ إِلَى نَفْسِهِ،» وَمَنْ أُجْبِرَ عَلَيْهِ، يُنْزِلُ اللهُ عَلَيْهِ مَلَكًا فَيُسَدِّدُهُ.
