حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَلَمَةَ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا بَكْرُ (٢) بْنُ مُضَرَ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أُسَامَةَ بْنِ الْهَادِ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ بُسْرِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي قَيْسٍ، مَوْلَى عَمْرٍو، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: " إِذَا حَكَمَ الْحَاكِمُ وَاجْتَهَدَ (٣) ، ثُمَّ أَصَابَ فَلَهُ أَجْرَانِ، وَإِذَا حَكَمَ وَاجْتَهَدَ ثُمَّ أَخْطَأَ فَلَهُ أَجْرٌ " (٤)،
