Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 24494 — What a judge should begin with
٢٤٤٩٤ - حدثنا أبو بكر قال: حدثنا ابن عيينة عن (عبيد اللَّه) (١) بن أبي (يزيد) (٢) قال: كان ابن عباس إذا سئل عن الأمر، وكان في القرآن أخبر به، وإن لم يكن في القرآن فكان عن رسول اللَّه ﷺ، أخبر به، فإن لم يكن فعن أبي بكر وعمر ﵄ (٣)، فإن لم يكن قال: فيه برأيه (٤).
When Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) was asked about something and it was in the Qur'an, he would tell it. If it was not in the Qur'an but was in the hadith of the Messenger, he would tell that. If it was not there, he would look in the sayings of Sayyiduna Abu Bakr and Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both). And if he did not find it there either, he would exercise his own opinion.
