CHAPTER No: 39
*Seeking judgement from other than Allah and His Messenger is Hypocrisy
Allah the Most Exalted said:
"Have you seen those (hypocrites) who claim that they believe in that which has been sent
down to you, and that which was sent down before you, and they wish to go for judgement (in
their disputes) to the Taghut (false judges etc.) while they have been ordered to reject them? But Satan wishes to lead them far astray."
(4:60)
"And when it is said to them: "Come to what Allah has sent down and to the Messenger
(Muhammad P.BU.H)," you (Muhammad P.B.U.H,) see the hypocrites turn away from you(Muhammad P.B.U.H) with aversion."
(4:61)
"How then, when a catastrophe befalls them because of what their hands have sent forth, they come to you swearing by Allah, "We meant no more than goodwill and reonciliation!" (4:62)

He the Almighty said:
"And when it is said to them: 'Make not mischief on the earth,' they say: 'We are only peacemakers.' "(2:11)

Abdullah bin Amr bin Al-'Aas (May Allah be pleased with him) narrated that Allah's
Messenger (May the peace and blessing of Allah be upon him) said:
"None of you truly believes until his desires are in accordance with what I came with." [An-Nawawi graded this Hadith as Sahih and recorded in Kitab Al-Hujjah with a sound chain of narrators.]
Sha'bi said: "There was a dispute between a Jew and a Munafiq (hypocrite). The Jew said:
'Let us seek a judgement from Muhammad; for he knew that he (May the peace and blessing of Allah be upon him) does not take bribes. The hypocrite said: 'Let us get a judgement from the
Jews', because he knew they accepted bribes. Thus, both of them agreed to take their case to a
soothsayer in Juhainah. It was on this occasion the verse:
'Have you seen those who claim...' (4:60) was revealed".
Some said that there was a dispute between two men. One of them said: "Let us take the
dispute to the Prophet (May the peace and blessing of Allah be upon him) for his judgement" but the other said: "Take it to Ka'b bin Al-Ashraf'. Thereafter both of them came 'to Umar (May Allah be pleased with him) One of them told him the story so he asked the other who was not content to
take the case to Prophet (May the peace and blessing of Allah be upon him) "It is so (as the others said)?" He said, "Yes". He then (Umar (May Allah be pleased with him) ) struck him with his sword and killed him.
