ahmad:20393Sufyān > ʿAbd al-Malik b. ʿUmayr > ʿAbd al-Raḥman b. Abū Bakarah from his father

[Machine] From the prophet ﷺ , he said: It is not appropriate for a judge, and Sufyan said once to a ruler, to adjudicate between two while being angry.  

أحمد:٢٠٣٩٣حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكَرَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ لَا يَنْبَغِي لِلْقَاضِي وَقَالَ سُفْيَانُ مَرَّةً لِلْحَاكِمِ أَنْ يَحْكُمَ بَيْنَ اثْنَيْنِ وَهُوَ غَضْبَانُ
