Hadith 12149

عَنْ مُسْلِمِ بْنِ قَرَظَةَ وَكَانَ ابْنَ عَمِّ عَوْفِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَوْفَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ ”خِيَارُ أَئِمَّتِكُمْ مَنْ تُحِبُّونَهُمْ وَيُحِبُّونَكُمْ وَتُصَلُّونَ عَلَيْهِمْ وَيُصَلُّونَ عَلَيْكُمْ وَشِرَارُ أَئِمَّتِكُمُ الَّذِينَ تُبْغِضُونَهُمْ وَيُبْغِضُونَكُمْ وَتَلْعَنُونَهُمْ وَيَلْعَنُونَكُمْ“ قُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَفَلَا نُنَابِذُهُمْ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ قَالَ ”لَا مَا أَقَامُوا لَكُمُ الصَّلَاةَ أَلَا وَمَنْ وُلِّيَ عَلَيْهِ أَمِيرٌ وَالٍ فَرَآهُ يَأْتِي شَيْئًا مِنْ مَعْصِيَةِ اللَّهِ فَلْيُنْكِرْ مَا يَأْتِي مِنْ مَعْصِيَةِ اللَّهِ وَلَا يَنْزِعَنَّ يَدًا مِنْ طَاعَةٍ“
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Awf bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him), the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The best rulers are those whom you love and they love you, and you pray for mercy for them and they pray for mercy for you. And your worst rulers are those whom you hate and they hate you, and you curse them and they curse you. We said: O Messenger of Allah! Should we not separate ourselves from them in such a situation? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: No, as long as they establish prayer, you cannot separate from them. Beware! If any man among you is made a leader and ruler over you, and he sees his leader committing an act of disobedience to Allah, then he should reject that act of disobedience to Allah, but he should not withdraw his hand from obedience.
