English Translation
Buraydah narrated: The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: "Judges are of three types: two in the Fire and one in Paradise. A judge who judges unjustly while knowing it - he is in the Fire. A judge who judges while ignorant and thereby destroys people's rights - he is in the Fire. And a judge who judges with the truth - he is in Paradise."
