Majma al-Zawaid 7009 — The judge appointing a deputy

وَعَنِ السَّائِبِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَأَبَا بَكْرٍ لَمْ يَتَّخِذَا قَاضِيًا . وَأَوَّلُ مَنِ اسْتَقْضَى عُمَرُ قَالَ : رُدَّ عَنِّي النَّاسَ فِي الدِّرْهَمِ وَالدِّرْهَمَيْنِ .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْكَبِيرِ وَالْأَوْسَطِ ، وَفِيهِ ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ ، وَفِيهِ ضَعْفٌ ، وَحَدِيثُهُ حَسَنٌ ، وَبَقِيَّةُ رِجَالِهِ رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ .
قُلْتُ : قَدْ تَقَدَّمَ : أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - أَمَرَ عُقْبَةَ بْنَ عَامِرٍ أَنْ يَقْضِيَ بِحَضْرَتِهِ ، وَوَرَدَ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ كَذَلِكَ .
Sayyiduna al-Sa'ib bin Yazid (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) did not make anyone a judge. The first to appoint a judge was Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), and he said: "Keep the people away from me in matters of a dirham or two dirhams" (that is, you settle them).
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir and al-Mu'jam al-Awsat; its chain contains Ibn Lahi'ah, in whom there is weakness, though his hadith is hasan (good), and the rest of its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih. (Allamah al-Haythami says:) I say: It has already been mentioned before this that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded Sayyiduna Uqbah bin Amir (may Allah be pleased with him) to give judgment in his presence, and it has also been reported that the same happened with Sayyiduna Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with him).
