وَعَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ أَنَّ خَصْمَيْنِ اخْتَصَمَا إِلَى عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ فَقَضَى بَيْنَهُمَا فَسَخِطَ الْمَقْضِيُّ عَلَيْهِ فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَأَخْبَرَهُ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " إِذْ قَضَى الْقَاضِي فَاجْتَهَدَ وَأَصَابَ فَلَهُ عَشَرَةُ أُجُورٍ ، وَإِذَا اجْتَهَدَ وَأَخْطَأَ فَلَهُ أَجْرٌ أَوْ أَجْرَانِ " .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَالطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْأَوْسَطِ ، وَفِيهِ سَلَمَةُ بْنُ أُكْسُومٍ ، وَلَمْ أَجِدْ مَنْ تَرْجَمَهُ بِعِلْمٍ .

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates: Two disputants brought their case before Sayyiduna Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with him), and he judged between them. The one against whom the judgment went was displeased, so he went to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and told him about it. He said: "When the judge, in giving judgment, exercises his independent reasoning (ijtihad) and judges correctly, he receives a tenfold reward; and when he exercises his reasoning and errs, he receives one (the narrator is unsure; perhaps the words are: or) two rewards."
Ahmad recorded it, and al-Tabarani in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat; its chain contains Salamah bin Uksum, and I have not found anyone who has given an account of him.
