اخبرنا عمر بن إبراهيم قال ثنا مكرم قال ثنا أحمد بن عطية قال ثنا إبراهيم بن سعيد قال أحضر المأمون موسى بن سليمان ومعلى الرازي فبدأ بأبي سليمان لسنه وشهرته بالورع فعرض عليه القضاء فقال يا أمير المؤمنين احفظ حقوق الله في القضاء ولا تول على أمانتك مثلي فإني والله غير مأمون الغضب ولا ارضي نفسي لله إن أحكم في عباده قال صدقت وقد أعفيناك فدعا له بخير وأقبل على معلى فقال له مثل ذلك فقال لا أصلح قال ولم قال لأني رجل أداين فأبيت مطلوبا وطالبا قال نأمر بقضاء دينك وبتقاضي ديونك فمن أعطاك قبلناه ومن لم يعطك عوضناك مالك عليه قال ففي شكوك في الحكم وفي ذلك تلف أموال الناس قال يحضر مجلسك أهل الدين إخوانك فما شككت فيه سألتهم عنه وما صح عندك أمضيته قال أنا أرتاد رجلا أوصي إليه من أربعين سنة ما أجد من أوصي إليه فمن أين أجد من يعينني على قضاء حقوق الله الواجبة علي حتى أئتمنه على دينك وديني فأعفاه

ʿUmar ibn Ibrāhīm informed us: Makram related to us: Aḥmad ibn ʿAṭiyya related to us: Ibrāhīm ibn Saʿīd related to us: Al-Maʾmūn summoned Mūsā ibn Sulaymān and Muʿallāal-Rāzī. He began with Abū Sulaymān because of his age and his reputation for scrupulousness, and offered him the judgeship. He replied, “Commander of the Faithful, safeguard God's rights in judicial office, and do not entrust your responsibility to someone like me. By God, my anger cannot be trusted, and I do not consider myself fit before God to judge His servants.” He said, “You have spoken truthfully; we have excused you.” He prayed for him and turned to Muʿallā, addressing him similarly. Muʿallā replied, “I am not fit.” He asked, “Why?” He replied, “I am a man who deals in debts; I spend the night both owing and being owed.” He said, “We shall order your debts paid and your outstanding debts collected. We shall accept what anyone pays you, and compensate you for what anyone fails to pay.” He replied, “I have doubts in judgment, and that entails the loss of people's property.” He said, “Your religious brothers will attend your court. Ask them about whatever you doubt, and implement what you find sound.” He replied, “For forty years I have sought a man to whom I could entrust my testamentary affairs, without finding anyone. Where, then, shall I find someone to help me discharge God's obligatory rights, whom I can trust with your religion and mine?” So he excused him.
