أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، أنبأ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْحَكَمِ، أنبأ ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ سُفْيَانَ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي يَزِيدَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا إِذَا سُئِلَ عَنْ شَيْءٍ هُوَ فِي كِتَابِ اللهِ قَالَ بِهِ، وَإِذَا لَمْ يَكُنْ فِي كِتَابِ اللهِ وَقَالَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ بِهِ، وَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ فِي كِتَابِ اللهِ، وَلَمْ يَقُلْهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَقَالَهُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ بِهِ، وَإِلَّا اجْتَهَدَ رَأْيَهُ ".
Ubaydullah bin Abi Yazid said: I heard Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both): when he was asked about something and it was in the Qur'an, he would rule according to it. If it was not in the Qur'an, he would rule in accordance with the Sunnah of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). If it was in neither the Qur'an nor said by the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), but Abu Bakr and Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) had said it, he would adopt it; otherwise he would exercise his own judgement (ijtihad).
