سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ الْوَاجِبُ عَلَى الْإِمَامِ إِذَا نَظَرَ إِلَى رَجُلٍ يَزْنِي أَوْ يَشْرَبُ الْخَمْرَ أَنْ يُقِيمَ عَلَيْهِ الْحَدَّ وَ لَا يَحْتَاجُ إِلَى بَيِّنَةٍ مَعَ نَظَرِهِ لِأَنَّهُ أَمِينُ اللَّهِ فِي خَلْقِهِ وَ إِذَا نَظَرَ إِلَى رَجُلٍ يَسْرِقُ فَالْوَاجِبُ عَلَيْهِ أَنْ يَزْبُرَهُ وَ يَنْهَاهُ وَ يَمْضِيَ وَ يَدَعَهُ قُلْتُ كَيْفَ ذَاكَ قَالَ لِأَنَّ الْحَقَّ إِذَا كَانَ لِلَّهِ فَالْوَاجِبُ عَلَى الْإِمَامِ إِقَامَتُهُ وَ إِذَا كَانَ لِلنَّاسِ فَهُوَ لِلنَّاسِ.
English translationHubeAli
Ali Bin Muhammad, from Muhammad Bin Ahmad Al Mahmoudy, from his father, from Yunus, from Al Husayn Bin Khalid, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah asws , said, ‘I heard him asws saying: ‘It is Obligatory upon the Imam asws when he asws finds a man committing adultery, or drinking the wine, that he asws should established the Penalty ( Hadd ) upon him, and he asws is not needy of any proof along with his asws vision, because he asws is a Trustee of Allah azwj among His azwj creatures. And when he asws looks at a man who steals, so it is Obligatory upon him asws that he asws reprimands him, and forbids him, and goes and leaves him’. I said, ‘How can that be so?’ He asws said: ‘Because the truth, if it was for the Sake of Allah azwj , so it is Obligatory upon the Imam asws to stand by it, and when it was for the people, so it is for the people (to stand by it)’.
