The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “If the judge rules and strives his utmost to work it out and gets it right, he will have two rewards, and if he rules and strives his utmost to work it out and gets it wrong, he will have one reward.” [Bukhari &amp; Muslim]

Does this hadith contradict the one you have narrated? This hadith is authentic! Let me give you a verse from Quran which will prove my contention is correct.

your reference is right but the context is wrong.
we are   talking about the punishment and reward of an 'accuse' not the judge.

&quot;Allah does not lay a responsibility on anyone beyond his capacity&quot;. (2:286)

Maulana Mawdudi explains the above verse in his tafseer as follows:

&quot;Man's answerability to God is limited to by the extent of his ability&quot;. If suicide bomber does not even know what he is doing is wrong, how can he be taknen to task for it. [/quote]

Maulana is right,  but the meaning you have derived from his interpretation is immature and I am afraid it is just opposite of what he has said.
Its simply means men are not going to be questioned beyond their capabilities.e.g.a poor is not going to be asked about zakat,because he is not capable of doing that.
The problem begins only when the poor goes beyond his 'ability' start paying zakat and finishes everything what he has for his livelihood.
Similarly a bomber is asked to fight only within his capacity and not beyond it because he is not made responsible for it.[/quote]
