رَوَى اَلْحَسَنُ بْنُ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ قَالَ: سُئِلَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ قَاضٍ بَيْنَ قَرْيَتَيْنِ يَأْخُذُ مِنَ اَلسُّلْطَانِ عَلَى اَلْقَضَاءِ اَلرِّزْقَ فَقَالَ "ذَاكَ سُحْتٌ".
Al-Hasan ibn Mahbub narrated from Abdullah ibn Sinan who said: Abu Abdillah عليه السلام was asked about a judge between two villages who takes a salary from the ruler for judging. Imam عليه السلام said: "That is unlawful (suht)."
