The Chapters On Judgements From The Messenger of Allah
Da'if

The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْقُدُّوسِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْعَطَّارُ، حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَاصِمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عِمْرَانُ الْقَطَّانُ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ الشَّيْبَانِيِّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي أَوْفَى، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ "‏ إِنَّ اللَّهَ مَعَ الْقَاضِي مَا لَمْ يَجُرْ فَإِذَا جَارَ تَخَلَّى عَنْهُ وَلَزِمَهُ الشَّيْطَانُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ لاَ نَعْرِفُهُ إِلاَّ مِنْ حَدِيثِ عِمْرَانَ الْقَطَّانِ ‏.‏
" Allah is with the judge as long as he is not unjust. So when he is unjust, He leaves him and he is attended by Shaitan."
Narrated by Ibn Abi Al-Awfa narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:

Context

This hadith highlights the importance of justice in leadership, as narrated by Ibn Abi Al-Awfa. The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) states that Allah supports a judge as long as he remains just. However, if the judge acts unjustly, he loses that divine support and is instead accompanied by Shaitan. This emphasizes the weight of responsibility that comes with authority.

Modern Application

In contemporary settings, this principle can be applied to various leadership roles, reminding leaders to uphold fairness and integrity in their decisions. Whether in business, community, or family matters, maintaining justice fosters trust and respect.

Topics

This hadith is tagged with Justice and Prophetic Conduct because it underscores the significance of fairness in leadership, reflecting the ethical standards that the Prophet (ﷺ) exemplified.
