"I am only a human being, and you bring your disputes to me, some perhaps being more eloquent in their plea than others, so that I give judgement on their behalf according to what I hear from them. Therefore, whatever I decide for anyone which by right belongs to his brother, he must not take anything, for I am granting him only a portion of Hell. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3583)  

الكبرى للنسائي:٥٩٧٧أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ وَالْحَارِثُ بْنُ مِسْكِينٍ قِرَاءَةً عَلَيْهِ وَأَنَا أَسْمَعُ عَنِ ابْنِ الْقَاسِمِ عَنْ مَالِكٍ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ زَيْنَبَ بِنْتِ أبي سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ

أن رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قال «وَإِنَّمَا أَنَا بَشَرٌ وإِنَّكُمْ تَخْتَصِمُونَ إِلَيَّ وَلَعَلَّ بَعْضَكُمْ أن يكون أَلْحَنُ بِحُجَّتِهِ مِنْ بَعْضٍ فَأَقْضِي له عَلَى نَحْوِ مَا أَسْمَعُ منه فَمَنْ قَضَيْتُ لَهُ بشيء مِنْ حَقِّ أَخِيهِ شَيْئًا فلا يأخذ منه شيئاً فَإِنَّمَا أَقْطَعُ لَهُ قِطْعَةً مِنَ النَّارِ»
