باب التَّوَرُّعِ عَنِ الْجَوَابِ فِيمَا لَيْسَ فِيهِ كِتَابٌ وَلاَ سُنَّةٌ:Chapter: Caution in Answering Without Clear Evidence from Qur'an or Sunnah
Hadith 115
أَخْبَرَنَا أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ بْنِ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنْ يَحْيَى، قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِلْقَاسِمِ: مَا أَشَدَّ عَلَيَّ أَنْ تُسْأَلَ عَنْ الشَّيْءِ لَا يَكُونُ عِنْدَكَ وَقَدْ كَانَ أَبُوكَ إِمَامًا، قَالَ: "إِنَّ أَشَدَّ مِنْ ذَلِكَ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ وَعِنْدَ مَنِ عَقَلَ عَنْ اللَّهِ أَنْ أُفْتِيَ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ، أَوْ أَرْوِيَ عَنْ غَيْرِ ثِقَةٍ".
Yahya said: I said to Qasim, "It is very hard for me that someone asks you a question and you express ignorance about it, even though your father was the Imam of the time." He replied, "It is even harder and more severe (a harsher matter) with Allah and with those who have understanding about Allah, that I should give a fatwa without knowledge or narrate something from an unreliable narrator."
