قَالَ عَلِيٌّ ع‌ يَدُ اللَّهِ فَوْقَ رَأْسِ‌ الْحَاكِمِ تُرَفْرِفُ بِالرَّحْمَةِ- فَإِذَا حَافَ فِي الْحُكْمِ وَكَلَهُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ إِلَى نَفْسِهِ‌[1].

Hadith.3228 - Al-Sakuni narrated with his chain of transmission that Commander of the Faithful Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (as) said: "The hand of Allah (swt) hovers with mercy above the head of the judge. But if he deviates in judgment, Allah (swt), the Mighty and Majestic, leaves him to himself."
