It is narrated from Muhammad bin Sirin that a man came to Sayyiduna Umar bin Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) and said: I and my companion released our horses in a narrow valley, and we hunted a deer, and both of us were in the state of ihram. Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) called a person who was sitting beside him and said: Come, let us both give a ruling together. So both of them jointly ruled for a goat. That man turned away and said: This is the Commander of the Faithful, he could not decide alone about a deer until he called another person to join him. Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) heard this, so he called him and said: Have you read Surah Al-Ma'idah? He replied: No. Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Do you know the person who gave the ruling with me? He said: No. Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: If you had said that you had read Surah Al-Ma'idah, I would have beaten you. Then he said: Allah Almighty says in His Book: "Let two just men among you judge concerning the penalty; the offering should be brought to the Ka'bah." And this person is Sayyiduna Abdur Rahman bin Awf (may Allah be pleased with him).
