Bayhaqi 20241 — The dislike of leadership, and the dislike of taking

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، ثنا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عِيسَى الْحِيرِيُّ، ثنا أَبُو يَحْيَى زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ دَاوُدَ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَحْمَدَ بْنَ يُوسُفَ السُّلَمِيَّ يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ يَحْيَى بْنَ يَحْيَى يُعَاتِبُ الْحُسَيْنَ بْنَ مَنْصُورٍ عَلَى دُخُولِهِ فِي الْعَدَالَةِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهُ: " أَلَيْسَ حَكَيْتَ أَنْتَ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ بْنِ عُيَيْنَةَ، قَالَ: " لَا تَكُنْ مُعَدِّلًا، وَلَا مَنْ يَعْرِفُهُ مُعَدِّلٌ "، ثُمَّ قَالَ يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى: " إِنَّمَا الْعَدَالَةُ طُبَيْقٌ يُبْعَثُ إِلَى أَحَدِهِمْ ".
Yahya bin Yahya (may Allah have mercy on him) was rebuking al-Husayn bin Mansur for entering into the 'adalah (the office of vouching for witnesses). Then he said: Did you not yourself relate from Sufyan bin Uyaynah (may Allah have mercy on him) that he said: Do not be one who vouches for witnesses, nor one whom such a voucher knows? Then Yahya bin Yahya (may Allah have mercy on him) said: The 'adalah is nothing but a little platter that is sent to one of them.
