Bayhaqi 20240 — The dislike of leadership, and the dislike of taking

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ الْمُزَكِّي، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ وَالِدِي، يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ، ح، وَأنبأ أَبُو الْقَاسِمِ الْحَسَنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ حَبِيبٍ الْمُفَسِّرُ، مِنْ أَصْلِ كِتَابِهِ أنبأ أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى، أنبأ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُسَيِّبِ الْأَرْغِيَانِيُّ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ يُونُسَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى يَقُولُ: " كَتَبَ الْخَلِيفَةُ إِلَى عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ وَهْبٍ فِي قَضَاءِ مِصْرَ فَجَنَّنَ نَفْسَهُ، وَلَزِمَ الْبَيْتَ، وَأَرَادَ أَنْ يَتَوَضَّأَ فِي وَسَطِ الدَّارِ، فَاطَّلَعَ عَلَيْهِ رِشْدِينُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ مِنَ السَّطْحِ، فَقَالَ: " يَا أَبَا مُحَمَّدٍ أَلَا تَخْرُجُ إِلَى النَّاسِ، فَتَحْكُمَ بَيْنَهُمْ بِمَا أَمَرَ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ؟ قَدْ جَنَّنْتَ نَفْسَكَ، وَلَزِمْتَ الْبَيْتَ "، فَرَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ إِلَيْهِ، وَقَالَ: " إِلَى هَهُنَا انْتَهَى عِلْمُكَ؟ أَلَمْ تَعْلَمْ أَنَّ الْقُضَاةَ يُحْشَرُونَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مَعَ السَّلَاطِينَ، وَيُحْشَرُ الْعُلَمَاءُ مَعَ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ وَالْمُرْسَلِينَ؟ ".
Yunus bin Abd al-A'la (may Allah have mercy on him) said: The Caliph wrote to Abdullah bin Wahb (may Allah have mercy on him) regarding the judgeship of Egypt, so he made himself appear mad and kept to his house. One day he was about to perform ablution in the middle of the house when Rishdin bin Sa'd (may Allah have mercy on him) saw him from the roof and said: "O Abu Muhammad! Will you not go out to the people and judge between them by what Allah and His Messenger have commanded? You have made yourself appear mad and kept to your house." He raised his head and said: "Is this the limit of your knowledge? Do you not know that the judges will be gathered on the Day of Resurrection with the rulers, and the scholars will be gathered with the prophets and messengers?"
