The study investigates the consequences of slander on the judicial and juristic figures during the Bahri Mamluk era. Despite extensive research on the Mamluk judicial system, there is a knowledge gap regarding the personal and professional repercussions of slander on key judicial figures. Utilizing a descriptive historical approach, the study examines cases of prominent judges and jurists who were victims of slander, detailing the motivations behind such acts and their subsequent effects. The findings reveal that slander not only led to the isolation, imprisonment, and professional degradation of these figures but also had broader social and economic implications, affecting their families and societal perceptions of the judiciary. The results underscore the significant role of envy, jealousy, and political intrigue in the propagation of slander, highlighting the necessity for measures to protect judicial integrity. This research contributes to a deeper understanding of the intersection between personal vendettas and professional duties in historical legal systems, with implications for contemporary judicial practices.
