[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "There are two judges in Hell and one judge in Paradise. The judge who judged with justice will be in Paradise, and the judge who judged with injustice will be in Hell, and the judge who judged in ignorance will also be in Hell." They asked, "What is the sin of the one who judges in ignorance?" He replied, "His sin is that he should not be a judge until he knows." (Narrated by Muslim)

"The judges are three: Two judges that are in the Fire, and a judge that is in Paradise. A man who judges without the truth, and he knows that. This one is in the Fire. One who judges while not knowing, ruining the rights of the people. So he is in the Fire. A judge who judges with the truth, that is the one in Paradise."] (Daif) (Using translation from Tirmidhī 1322)

"قَاضِيَانِ فِي النَّار، وَقَاض في الْجَنَّةِ، قَاضٍ عَرَفَ الْحَقَّ فَقَضَى بِهِ فَهُوَ فِي الْجَنَّةِ، وَقَاضِ عَرف الْحَقَّ فَجَارَ مُتعَمِّدًا، أَوْ قَضَى بغَيرِ عِلْمٍ فَهُمَا في النَّارِ، قَالُوا: فَمَا ذَنْبُ هَذَا الَّذِي يَجْهَلُ؟ قَال: ذَنْبُه أَن لا يَكُونَ قَاضِيًا حَتَّى يَعْلَمَ".
