Arabic Text
أَخْبَرَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ ، عَنْ هِشَامٍ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ ، عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ :" إِنَّمَا يُفْتِي النَّاسَ ثَلَاثَةٌ : رَجُلٌ إِمَامٌ أَوْ وَالٍ
وَرَجُلٌ يَعْلَمُ نَاسِخَ الْقُرْآنِ مِنْ الْمَنْسُوخِ "، قَالُوا : يَا حُذَيْفَةُ، وَمَنْ ذَاكَ؟، قَالَ : " عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ، أَوْ أَحْمَقُ مُتَكَلِّفٌ "

English Translation
It was narrated from Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: 'Only three types of people should give religious verdicts: an imam or ruler, a man who knows the abrogating verses of the Quran from the abrogated ones.' They said: And who is that, O Hudhayfah? He said: 'Umar ibn al-Khattab, and a man who is compelled by necessity.'
