The Jew replied, “I swear by Allah that we find in the Torah that no qadi judges rightly without having an angel at his right hand and an angel at his left who direct him and dispose him to what is right as long as he adheres to the right; but when he abandons the right they ascend and leave him.” Malik transmitted it.

Tirmidhi transmitted it. * Or, ‘without reward or punishment’. Razin’s version on the authority of Nafi' tells that Ibn ‘Umar said to ‘Uthman, “Commander of the faithful, I shall not pronounce judgment between two men.” He replied, “Your father used to do so.” He said, “If anything was dubious to my father he asked Allah's Messenger ﷺ, and if anything was dubious to Allah's Messenger ﷺ he asked Gabriel, but I can find no one to ask, and I heard Allah's Messenger ﷺ say, ‘He who seeks refuge in Allah has sought refuge in a great One.’ I also heard him say, ‘Grant refuge to him who seeks refuge in Allah’, and I seek refuge in Allah from your making me a qadi."
