1. We were told by Muhammed bin Hasan bin Ahmad bin Waleed, that he said: We were told by Muhammed bin Hasan al-Saffar, that he said: We were told by Ahmad bin Abi Abdillah, that he said: We were told by Abdul-Rahman bin Abbas bin Fadl bin Abbas ibn Rabee’a bin Harith bin Abdul-Muttalib, from Sabah bin Khaqan, from Amru bin Uthman al-Taimi, the judge, that he said: The Commander of the Believers, Allah’s blessings be upon him, went out to his companions while they were mentioning manliness, and he said
Where are you from the Book of Allah? They said: O Commander of the Believers, which spot? He said: In the saying of Him, Exalted and Glorious is He: «Indeed, Allah commands to justice and good deed» (16:90). Justice is fairness, and good deed is bestowment.
حدثنا محمد بن الحسن بن أحمد بن الوليد، قال: حدثنا محمد بن الحسن الصفار، قال: حدثنا أحمد بن أبي عبد الله، قال: حدثنا عبد الرحمن بن العباس بن الفضل بن العباس ابن ربيعة بن الحارث بن عبد المطلب، عن صباح بن خاقان، عن عمرو بن عثمان التميمي القاضي، قال
خرج أمير المؤمنين صلوات الله عليه على أصحابه وهم يتذاكرون المروءة. فقال: أين أنتم من كتاب الله؟ قالوا: يا أمير المؤمنين في أي موضع؟ فقال: في قوله عز و جل: " إن الله يأمر بالعدل والاحسان " فالعدل الانصاف، والاحسان التفضل.
