Allah Maɗaukakin Sarki ya ce, {Kuma duk wanda bai yi hukunci da abin da Allah ya saukar ba, to waɗancan su ne kafirai.} (Al-Ma'idah: 44)

Allah Most High says, {And if any fail to judge by what Allah hath revealed, they are unbelievers.} (AI-Ma'idah: 44)

{Kuma duk wanda bai yi hukunci da abin da Allah ya saukar ba, to waɗannan su ne azzalumai.} (Al-Ma'idah: 45)

{And if any fail to judge by what Allah hath revealed, they are wrong-doers.} (AI-Ma'idah: 45)

{Kuma duk wanda bai yi hukunci da abin da Allah ya saukar ba, to waɗannan su ne azzalumai.} (Al-Ma'idah: 47)

{And if any do fail to judge by what Allah hath revealed, they are those who rebel.} (AI-Ma'idah: 47)

A cikin Mustadrak dinsa, Al-Hakim ya ruwaito daga Talhah Ibn 'Ubaid Allah (Allah ya yarda da shi) cewa Annabi ﷺ ya ce: "Lallai Allah ba ya karɓar Salla ta alkalin da yake yanke hukunci da abin da Allah bai saukar ba."1

In his Mustadrak, AI-Hakim reported on the authority of Talhah Ibn 'Ubaid Allah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (pbuh) said, "Verily, Allah never accepts the Prayer of a judge who judges with what Allah has not revealed.”1

Al-Hakim ya ruwaito kuma a cikin Sahihinsa, daga Buraidah (Allah ya yarda da shi), cewa Manzon Allah ﷺ ya ce: "Alƙalai nau'i uku ne: Nau'i ɗaya zai shiga Aljannah, sauran biyu kuwa za su ƙare a wutar Jahannama. Alƙalin da zai shiga Aljannah shi ne wanda ya san gaskiya kuma ya yi hukunci da ita. Wanda ya yi hukunci da zalunci bayan ya san gaskiya zai shiga Jahannama."

AI-Hakim reported also in his Sahih on the authority of Brada, (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said, "The judges are of three types: One type will go to Paradise and the remaining two will end up in the fire of Hell. The judge who will go to Paradise is one who understands the truth and judges accordingly. One who judges unjustly after understanding the truth will go to Hell.

Haka kuma alƙalin da yake yanke hukunci cikin jahilci zai shiga Wuta. Sahabbai sai suka tambaya, "Menene laifin jahili?" Sai ya ce (ﷺ), "Karɓar matsayin alƙali shi ne laifinsa har sai ya samu zurfin ilimi."

Likewise, the judge who judges in ignorance also will go to Hell. The Companions then asked, “What is the guilt of the ignorant one?” He (pbuh) replied, "Accepting the position of judge is his guilt until he gets a profound knowledge.” 2

Daga Abu Hurairah, cewa Manzon Allah ﷺ ya ce: "Duk wanda aka nada shi ya zama alkali, to kamar an yanka shi ba da wuka ba." 3

On the authority of Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said, "Whoever is appointed to be a judge as if he is slaughtered without a knife.” 3

Al-Fudail Ibn 'Eyad (Allah ya yi masa rahama) ya ce, "Ya kamata alkali ya ciyar da rana guda a aikinsa, sannan ya ciyar da wata rana yana kuka saboda kansa." Muhammad Ibn Wasi' (Allah ya yi masa rahama) ya ce, "A Ranar Alkiyama, na farko daga cikin mutane da za a fara hisabi da su su ne alkalai." 'Aisha (Allah ya yarda da ita) ta ce, "Na ji Manzon Allah ﷺ yana cewa, 'A Ranar Alkiyama, alkali mai adalci zai fuskanci wata babbar jarrabawa har ya yi fatan da ba a naɗa shi ya yi shari'a tsakanin mutane ba, ko da kuwa a rabon dabino guda ɗaya.'"4

AI-Fudail Ibn 'Eyad (may Allah bestow mercy on him) said, 'the judge should spend a day in his job and a day in weeping over his own self." Muhammad Ibn Wasi' (may Allah best our mercy on him) said, "On the Day of Judgment, the first of men who will be called to account are the judges.” 'Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah say, "On the Day of Judgment, the just judge would face a great trial that he wishes if he were not appointed to judge between people even in the division of a palm-date.”4

Ali Ibn Abi Talib (radiyallahu anhu) ya ce, "Na ji Manzon Allah ﷺ yana cewa, 'A Ranar Alkiyama, babu wani sarki ko alkali face an kawo shi gaban Allah, Madaukaki Mai Girma, a kan Sirat, sannan a bayyana ayyukansa. Idan ya kasance mai adalci, Allah zai tsira da shi. Amma idan ya kasance azzalumi, Sirat zai girgiza sosai har gaɓoɓin wannan mutum za su watse,' nisan da ke tsakanin kowace gaɓa zai kasance haka da haka tsawonsa, sannan zai fāɗa cikin Wutar Jahannama." Makhul kuma ya ce, "Idan zan zaɓi tsakanin riƙe matsayin alkali da a yanke min kai, lallai zan fi zaɓar a yanke min kai a kan riƙe wannan aiki." Ayyub Al-Sikhtiani ya ƙara da cewa, "Yawan ilimin malami, haka tsoronsa na riƙe matsayin alkali yake ƙaruwa." Bayan an faɗa masa cewa an naɗa Shuraih alkali, Al-Thawri ya ce, "Za su lalata mutumin." An rawaito cewa Malik Ibn Al-Mundhir ya naɗa Muhammad Ibn Wasi' alkalin Basra.

`Ali Ibn Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah (pbuh) say, 'On the Day of Judgment, no ruler or judge but be brought before Allah, Exalted and Dignified be He, over the Sirat, then his deeds will be made public. If he was a just, Allah will save him. On the other hand, if he was unjust, the Sirat will strongly tremble to the extent that this one's organs would be scattered,' the distance between each organ would be such and such long and he will fall into Hell-Fire. " Makhul, moreover, said, "If I were to choose between holding the position of a judge and beheading, I would surely prefer beheading over holding this job." Ayub Al-Sikhtiani further said, "The more knowledge the scholar get, the more their fear of holding the position of a judge increases." Having told that Shuraih was appointed to be a judge, AI- Thawri commented, "They would corrupt the man." It was narrated that Malik Ibn Al-Mundhir appointed Muhammad Ibn Wasi', to be the judge of Basra.

Lokacin da Muhammad ya ki amincewa, Malik ya yi masa gargaɗi cewa zai yi masa bulala idan ya dage kan ƙin amincewarsa. Da ya ji haka, Muhammad ya bayyana, "Idan ka yi haka, za ka zama sarki azzalumi. Amma ni na fi son wulakanci a duniyar nan a kan azaba a duniyar lahira." Wahb Ibn Manabah ya ce, "Yawan adalcin sarki, yawan albarkar da Allah zai saukar wa mutanensa." Wani ma'aikaci ya rubuta wa `Umar Ibn `Abd AI-`Aziz, "Ya 'Umar! Garin Hims ya lalace, don haka yana bukatar a sake gina shi." `Umar (Allah ya yarda da shi) ya amsa, "Ka ƙarfafa shi da adalci, ka tsaftace hanyoyinsa daga zalunci." Duk da haka, malaman Musulunci sun bayyana cewa alkali bai kamata ya yanke hukunci a lokacin da yake fushi, cikin damuwa ko tsoro ba. Haka kuma, idan an naɗa mutum mai jahilci ko fasiƙi a matsayin alkali, ya kamata ya ajiye mukamin ya bar shi.

When Muhammad objected, Malik warned him that he would flog him if he insisted on his objection. On hearing that Muhammad disclosed, "If you do, you will be a tyrannical ruler. However, I prefer humiliation in this world over the torment in the world to come." Wahb Ibn Manabah said, "The more just the ruler is, the more blessing on his people Allah will descend." A worker wrote to `Umar Ibn `Abd AI-`Aziz, "O 'Umar! The city of Hims has been destroyed and therefore it is in need of rebuilding." `Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) replied, "Fortify it with justice and clean its roads from oppression." However, the scholars of Islam state that the judge should not utter a judgment when he is angry, anxious or nervous. Furthermore, if a man of ignorance or immorality is appointed to be a judge, he should resign and leave the office.
