آداب القاضي
Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) cursed the one who gives a bribe and the one who receives a bribe to influence a Judgment.
عن أبي هريرة -رضي الله عنه- قال: «لَعَن رسول الله -صلى الله عليه وسلم- الرَّاشِي والمُرْتَشِي في الحُكْم».
شرح الحديث :
As people give bribes to attain what it invalid, the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) prayed that they be expelled from Allah's mercy, referring to those who give bribes and those who receive bribes. Due to their grave consequences to people and society, bribes are absolutely forbidden. They are even more so, when they are involved in a judgment, such as when a judge is bribed to pass a judgment that replaces the Shariah judgment, and he changes the ruling, alleviates it, or makes it in favor of the briber.
