Question

Is this Hadith authentic?

Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said:

“Whoever seeks to be a judge and asks others to intercede so he can have it, he will be left to himself. Whoever is forced into it, Allah will send down an angel to direct him.”

 

Answer

Imam Tirmidhi (rahimahullah) has recorded this Hadith on the authority of Sayyiduna Anas (radiyallahu ‘anhu). He has declared the Hadith sound (hasanun gharib).

(Sunan Tirmidhi, Hadith: 1324. Also see: Sunan Abi Dawud, Hadith: 3573)

 

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.

التخريج من المصادر العربية

سنن الترمذي:
(١٣٢٤) – حدثنا عبد الله بن عبد الرحمن قال: أخبرنا يحيى بن حماد، عن أبي عوانة، عن عبد الأعلى الثعلبي، عن بلال بن مرداس الفزاري، عن خيثمة وهو البصري، عن أنس، عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال: «من ابتغى القضاء وسأل فيه شفعاء وكل إلى نفسه، ومن أكره عليه أنزل الله عليه ملكا يسدده».
هذا حديث حسن غريب، وهو أصح من حديث إسرائيل، عن عبد الأعلى.

سنن أبي داود:
(٣٥٧٣) – حدثنا محمد بن كثير، أخبرنا إسرائيل، حدثنا عبد الأعلى، عن بلال عن أنس بن مالك، قال: سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول: «من طلب القضاء واستعان عليه وكل إليه، ومن لم يطلبه، ولم يستعن عليه، أنزل الله ملكا يسدده».
