The judge's counsel to fear Allah upon his appointment or at all times
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is the counsel to fear Allah for the judge only given upon his appointment, or does the one in authority continually remind him of this counsel?
Answer:
This is at the beginning. If they continually remind him, that is better, but this is at the beginning: they remind him, raise him in the fear of Allah, and counsel him to fear Allah at the start, just as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to counsel the commanders he sent over the soldiers, advising them regarding themselves and those with them. This is a legislated custom from the time of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.
