English translation
1327. Some men who were companions of Mu'ādh narrated from Mu'ādh that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ sent Mu'ādh to Yemen, so he ﷺ said: "How will you judge?" He said: "I will judge according to what is in Allāh's Book." He said: "If it is not in Allāh's Book?" He said: "Then with the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ." He said: "If it is not in the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ?" He said: "I will give in my view." He said: "All praise is due to Allāh, the One Who made the messenger of the Messenger of Allāh suitable." (Da'if)
