Sahih al-Bukhari · The Book of Holding Fast To The Qur’An and The Sunna

20- بَابُ إِذَا اجْتَهَدَ الْعَامِلُ أَوِ الْحَاكِمُ فَأَخْطَأَ خِلاَفَ الرَّسُولِ مِنْ غَيْرِ عِلْمٍ، فَحُكْمُهُ مَرْدُودٌ:

(20) Chapter. If a governor or a ruler gives a verdict based on his opinion and the verdict proves to be wrong and disagrees with the verdict of Allah’s Messenger (p.b.u.h.), but he is unaware of that; then his verdict will be rejected.
