The Sufficient (Vol 7) · Hadith 697 (#Ḥadīth #6)

6- مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحَجَّالِ عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ أَبِي يَزِيدَ عَمَّنْ سَمِعَهُ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ إِذَا كَانَ الْحَاكِمُ يَقُولُ لِمَنْ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَلِمَنْ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ مَا تَرَى مَا تَقُولُ فَعَلَى ذَلِكَ لَعْنَةُ اللهِ وَالْمَلائِكَةِ وَالنَّاسِ أَجْمَعِينَ أَلا يَقُومُ مِنْ مَجْلِسِهِ وَتُجْلِسُهُمْ مَكَانَهُ.

6. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Hajjal from Dawud ibn abu Yazid from the one who had heard from him (the Imam) who has narrated the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah , has said, ‘If a judge, to those on his right or left side, says, “What do you think, what do you say?” He is condemned by Allah, the angels and all people. Why must he not move away and make them sit in his place?”’
