قَالَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع لِشُرَيْحٍ لَا تُسَارَّ أَحَداً فِي مَجْلِسِكَ وَ إِنْ غَضِبْتَ فَقُمْ فَلَا تَقْضِيَنَّ فَأَنْتَ غَضْبَانُ قَالَ وَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ص لِسَانُ الْقَاضِي وَرَاءَ قَلْبِهِ فَإِنْ كَانَ لَهُ قَالَ وَ إِنْ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ أَمْسَكَ.

5. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn abu ‘Abd Allah in a marfu‘ manner who has narrated the following: “’Amir al-Mu’minin, Ali (a.s.), once said to Shurayh, ’You must not please anyone in your adjudicating session, and if you become angry, you must stand up and must not issue a judgment when you are angry.’ Abu ’Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, has said, ‘The tongue of a judge is behind his heart. If it is for him, he speaks; and if it is against him, he remains quiet.’”
Translation: Muhammad Sarwar — attributed by Thaqalayn·The Arabic above is the original.

[2]أي فان كان القلب له بأن لا يكون فيه ما يمنعه عن الحكم قضى و تكلم، و إن كان عليه بأن كان غضبان أو جائعا او مثله امسك عن الكلام، او المعنى ينبغي له أن يتفكر فيما يتكلم به فان كان له بان يكون صوابا تكلم و إلّا امسك و لعلّ الأول اظهر.( آت)ص 413
