Hadith #50851
وَعَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو وَأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَا: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِذَا حَكَمَ الْحَاكِمُ فَاجْتَهَدَ فَأَصَابَ فَلَهُ أَجْرَانِ وَإِذَا حَكَمَ فَاجْتَهَدَ فَأَخْطَأَ فلهُ أجرٌ واحدٌ»
On the authority of Abdullah bin Amr and Abu Hurairah, they said: The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: “If the ruler makes a ruling and tries hard and gets it right, then he gets it.” “Two rewards, and if he makes a ruling and strives hard but makes a mistake, he will have one reward.”
