  "en": "Al-Mansur came to Medina while Muhammad ibn Imran al-Talhi held its judgeship; the camel-drivers sued the caliph over something and the qadi summoned him to court. Al-Mansur attended with al-Rabi'; the judge did not rise for him but let down his robe and sat cross-legged, then called the claimants and ruled for them against the caliph. When it ended al-Mansur said, 'May God reward you well for your religion — I have granted you ten thousand dinars.' In the same vein he wrote to Sawwar ibn Abdallah, qadi of Basra, ordering him to hand a disputed plot to a commander; Sawwar refused absent proof, and al-Mansur exclaimed, 'By God I have filled it with justice — my judges now return me to the right' {cite:tarikh-khulafa-minhaj-1434 p. 431-432}."
