عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ ”يَكُونُ عَلَيْكُمْ أُمَرَاءُ تَطْمَئِنُّ إِلَيْهِمُ الْقُلُوبُ وَتَلِينُ لَهُمُ الْجُلُودُ ثُمَّ يَكُونُ عَلَيْكُمْ أُمَرَاءُ تَشْمَئِزُّ مِنْهُمُ الْقُلُوبُ وَتَقْشَعِرُّ مِنْهُمُ الْجُلُودُ“ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ أَنُقَاتِلُهُمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ ”لَا مَا أَقَامُوا الصَّلَاةَ“
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id Khudri, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Rulers will come over you under whose rule your hearts will be content and your skin will be soft in obedience to them, but after them there will also come rulers whom your hearts will hate and the hair on your bodies will stand on end out of fear of them. A man said: O Messenger of Allah! Shall we fight against such rulers? He, peace and blessings be upon him, said: As long as they establish prayer, you are not permitted to fight them.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … After the righteous and virtuous caliphs and rulers, evil ones adopted such methods of governance that reading their history makes one's hair stand on end.
