Hadith 9625

عَنْ مُعَاذٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ عَهِدَ إِلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي خَمْسٍ مَنْ فَعَلَ مِنْهُنَّ وَاحِدَةً كَانَ ضَامِنًا عَلَى اللَّهِ مَنْ عَادَ مَرِيضًا أَوْ خَرَجَ مَعَ جَنَازَةٍ أَوْ خَرَجَ غَازِيًا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ أَوْ دَخَلَ عَلَى إِمَامٍ يُرِيدُ بِذَلِكَ تَعْزِيزَهُ وَتَوْقِيرَهُ أَوْ قَعَدَ فِي بَيْتِهِ فَيَسْلَمُ النَّاسُ مِنْهُ وَيَسْلَمُ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) advised us regarding five things: Whoever does any one of these deeds will have a guarantee from Allah Almighty—whoever visits a sick person, or goes out with a funeral, or sets out for jihad in the way of Allah Almighty, or goes to the ruler to support and honor him, or remains seated in his house so that people are safe from him and he is safe from people.

Brief Explanation
Benefits: … What is meant by supporting and honoring the ruler is that he should be assisted upon the truth.
If a person does not have the ability to confront evil and prevent it with his hand or tongue, then he should distance himself from evil and the people of evil. However, it is necessary for the one who makes decisions to possess knowledge, understanding, and insight himself, or to consult with the people of knowledge.
