It was narrated that 'Abdur-Rahman bin Yazid said: The people asked 'Abdullah too many questions one day, and 'Abdullah said: 'There was a time when we did not pass so many judgments, but now that time is over. Now Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, has decreed that we reach a time when, as you see, (we are asked to pass many judgments). Whoever among you is asked to pass a judgment after this day, let him pass judgment according to what is in the Book of Allah. If he is faced with a matter that is not mentioned in the Book of Allah, let him pass judgment according to the way His Prophet [SAW] passed judgment. If he is faced with a matter that is not mentioned in the Book of Allah and concerning which His Prophet did not pass judgment, then let him pass judgment according to the way the righteous passed judgment. If he is faced with a matter that is not mentioned in the Book of Allah, and concerning which His Prophet and the righteous did not pass judgment, then let him strive to work it out, and let him not say 'I am afraid, I am afraid.' For that which is lawful is clear and that which is unlawful is clear, and between them are matters which are not as clear. Leave that which makes you doubt for that which does not make you doubt.'
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عُمَارَةَ هُوَ ابْنُ عُمَيْرٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَكْثَرُوا عَلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ،‏‏‏‏ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّهُ قَدْ أَتَى عَلَيْنَا زَمَانٌ وَلَسْنَا نَقْضِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَلَسْنَا هُنَالِكَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ قَدَّرَ عَلَيْنَا أَنْ بَلَغْنَا مَا تَرَوْنَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَمَنْ عَرَضَ لَهُ مِنْكُمْ قَضَاءٌ بَعْدَ الْيَوْمِ فَلْيَقْضِ بِمَا فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَإِنْ جَاءَ أَمْرٌ لَيْسَ فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَلْيَقْضِ بِمَا قَضَى بِهِ نَبِيُّهُ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَإِنْ جَاءَ أَمْرٌ لَيْسَ فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ وَلَا قَضَى بِهِ نَبِيُّهُ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَلْيَقْضِ بِمَا قَضَى بِهِ الصَّالِحُونَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَإِنْ جَاءَ أَمْرٌ لَيْسَ فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَلَا قَضَى بِهِ نَبِيُّهُ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَلَا قَضَى بِهِ الصَّالِحُونَ فَلْيَجْتَهِدْ رَأْيَهُ وَلَا يَقُولُ إِنِّي أَخَافُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَإِنِّي أَخَافُ فَإِنَّ الْحَلَالَ بَيِّنٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَالْحَرَامَ بَيِّنٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَبَيْنَ ذَلِكَ أُمُورٌ مُشْتَبِهَاتٌ فَدَعْ مَا يَرِيبُكَ إِلَى مَا لَا يَرِيبُكَ . قَالَ أَبُو عَبْد الرَّحْمَنِ:‏‏‏‏ هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ جَيِّدٌ.
عبدالرحمٰن بن یزید کہتے ہیں کہ   لوگوں نے ایک دن عبداللہ بن مسعود رضی اللہ عنہ سے بہت سارے موضوعات پر بات چیت کی، عبداللہ بن مسعود رضی اللہ عنہ نے کہا: ہم پر ایک زمانہ ایسا بھی گزر چکا ہے کہ ہم نہ تو کوئی فیصلہ کرتے تھے اور نہ ہی فیصلہ کرنے کے قابل تھے، پھر اللہ تعالیٰ نے ہمارے لیے مقدر کر رکھا تھا کہ ہم اس مقام کو پہنچے جو تم دیکھ رہے ہو، لہٰذا آج کے بعد سے جس کسی کو فیصلہ کرنے کی ضرورت آ پڑے تو چاہیئے کہ وہ اس کے مطابق فیصلہ کرے جو اللہ کی کتاب ( قرآن ) میں ہے، پھر اگر ایسا کوئی معاملہ اسے درپیش آئے جو کتاب اللہ ( قرآن ) میں نہ ہو تو اس کے مطابق فیصلہ کرے جو نبی اکرم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے کیا تھا، اور اگر کوئی ایسا معاملہ ہو جو نہ کتاب اللہ ( قرآن ) میں ہو اور نہ اس سلسلے میں نبی اکرم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کا کوئی فیصلہ ہو تو اس کے مطابق فیصلہ کرے جو نیک لوگوں نے کیا ہو ۱؎، اور اگر کوئی ایسا معاملہ آئے جو نہ کتاب اللہ ( قرآن ) میں ہو، نہ نبی اکرم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کا اس سلسلے میں کوئی فیصلہ ہو اور نہ ہی نیک لوگوں کا ) تو اسے چاہیئے کہ اپنی عقل سے اجتہاد کرے اور یہ نہ کہے کہ مجھے ڈر ہے، مجھے ڈر ہے، کیونکہ حلال واضح ہے اور حرام واضح ہے اور ان کے درمیان کچھ مشتبہ چیزیں ہیں تو تم ان باتوں کو چھوڑ دو جو تمہیں شک میں ڈالیں اور وہ کرو جو شک سے بالاتر ہوں۔ ابوعبدالرحمٰن ( نسائی ) کہتے ہیں: یہ حدیث بہت اچھی ہے۔

It was narrated that 'Abdullah bin Mas'ud said: There was a time when we did not pass so many judgments, but now that time is over. Now Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, has decreed that we reach a time when, as you see, (we are asked to pass many judgments). Whoever among you is asked to pass a judgment after this day, let him pass judgment according to what is in the Book of Allah. If he is faced with a matter that is not mentioned in the Book of Allah, let him pass judgment according to the way His Prophet [SAW] passed judgment. If he is faced with a matter that is not mentioned in the Book of Allah, and concerning which His Prophet did not pass judgment, then let him pass judgment according to the way the righteous passed judgment. And let him not say 'I am afraid, I am afraid.' For that which is lawful is clear and that which is unlawful is clear, and between them are matters which are not as clear. Leave that which makes you doubt for that which does not make you doubt.

It was narrated from Shuraih that: He wrote to 'Umar, to ask him (a question), and 'Umar wrote back to him telling him: Judge according to what is in the Book of Allah. If it is not (mentioned) in the Book of Allah, then (judge) according to the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah [SAW]. If it is not (mentioned) in the Book of Allah or the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah [SAW], then pass judgment according to the way the righteous passed judgment. If it is not (mentioned) in the Book of Allah, or the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah [SAW], and the righteous did not pass judgment concerning it, then if you wish, go ahead (and try to work it out by yourself) or if you wish, leave it. And I think that leaving it is better for you. And peace be upon you.

It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbas said: There were kings after 'Isa bin Mariam who altered the Tawrah and the Injil, but there were among them believers who read the Tawrah. It was said to their kings: 'We have never heard of any slander worse than that of those (believers) who slander us and recite: And whosoever does not judge by what Allah has revealed, such are the disbelievers. In these Verses, they are criticizing us for our deeds when they recite them.' So he called them together and gave them the choice between being put to death, or giving up reading the Tawrah and Injil, except for what had been altered. They said: 'Why do you want us to change? Leave us alone.' Some of them said: 'Build us a tower and let us go up there, and give us something to lift up our food and drink so we do not have to mix with you.' Others said: 'Let us go and wander throughout the land, and we will drink as the wild animals drink, and if you capture us in your land, you may kill us.' Others said: 'Build houses for us in the wilderness, and we will dig wells and grow vegetables, and we will not mix with you or pass by you, for there is no one of the tribes among whom we do not have close relatives.' So they did that, and Allah revealed the words: 'But the monasticism which they invented for themselves, We did not prescribe for them, but (they sought it) only to please Allah therewith, but that they did not observe it with the right observance.' Then others said: 'We will worship as so-and-so worshipped, and we will wander as so-and-so wandered, and we will adopt houses (in the wilderness) as so-and-so did.' But they were still following their Shirk with no knowledge of the faith of those whom they claimed to be following. When Allah sent the Prophet [SAW], and they were only a few of them left, a man came down from his cell, and a wanderer came from his travels, and a monk came from his monastery, and they believed in him. And Allah said: 'O you who believe! Fear Allah, and believe in His Messenger (Muhammad), He will give you a double portion of His mercy - meaning, two rewards, because of their having believed in 'Isa and in the Tawrah and Injil, and for having believing in Muhammad [SAW]; and He will give you a light by which you shall walk (straight), - meaning, the Qur'an, and their following the Prophet [SAW]; and He said: 'So that the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) may know that they have no power whatsoever over the Grace of Allah.'

It was narrated from Umm Salamah that: The Messenger of Allah [SAW] said: You refer your disputes to me, but I am only human, and some of you may be more eloquent in arguing their case than others. If I pass judgment in favor of one of you, against his brother's rights, let him not take it, for it is a piece of fire that I am giving him.

They referred the matter to Dawud, peace be upon him, for judgment (about the remaining child) and he ruled in favor of the older one. Then they went out to Sulaiman bin Dawud and told him (about that). He said: 'Give me a knife and I will cut him in half (to be shared) between you.' The younger one said: 'Do not do that, may Allah have mercy on you; he is her son.' So he ruled that (the child) belonged to the younger woman. Abu Hurairah said: By Allah! I never heard 'Sikkin' used until that day. We would only say: 'Mudyah.'
