Sayyiduna Ibn Buraydah narrates from his father that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Two judges will be in the Fire and one judge in Paradise: the judge who judged according to the truth is in Paradise; the judge who judged with injustice is in the Fire; and the judge who judged in his ignorance is in the Fire." The Companions said: What is the sin of this one who is ignorant (since he acted out of ignorance)? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "His sin is that he sat in the office of judge before he had attained knowledge." It has a supporting report (shahid) with an authentic chain on the condition of Imam Muslim.
