عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عُبَادَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَا مِنْ أَمِيرِ عَشَرَةٍ إِلَّا يُؤْتَى بِهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مَغْلُولًا لَا يَفُكُّهُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ الْغُلِّ إِلَّا الْعَدْلُ وَمَا مِنْ رَجُلٍ قَرَأَ الْقُرْآنَ فَنَسِيَهُ إِلَّا لَقِيَ اللَّهَ يَوْمَ يَلْقَاهُ وَهُوَ أَجْذَمُ
Sayyiduna Sa’d bin ‘Ubadah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The leader and responsible person of ten people will come on the Day of Resurrection in such a state that he will be bound in iron (chains); the thing that will free him from this captivity will be his justice and fairness. And the person who, after reading the Noble Qur’an, forgets it, will meet Allah Almighty in such a state that his hand will be cut off (or afflicted with leprosy).
