Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : What is the stronger position regarding a judge who rules while angry and then gets it right? What did you find to be stronger? You mentioned two opinions but did not indicate which one is stronger?
The Shaykh : The school of thought holds that if he gets it right, his ruling takes effect. If he judges while angry and then gets it right, his ruling is valid. This is because the cause for which judging in a state of anger is prohibited has been removed, as hitting the truth indicates that he has understood the issue and recognized it. This is the more correct view.
