Hadith 86
86 صحيح حديث مَعْقِلِ بْنِ يَسارٍ، أَنَّ عُبَيْدَ اللهِ بْنَ زِيادٍ عادَهُ في مَرَضِهِ الَّذي مَاتَ فِيهِ، فَقَالَ لَهُ مَعْقِلٌ إِنِّي مُحَدِّثُكَ حَديثًا سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: ما مِنْ عَبْدٍ اسْتَرْعاهُ اللهُ رَعِيَّةً فَلَمْ يَحُطْها بِنَصيحَةٍ إِلاّ لَمْ يَجِدْ رائِحَةَ الْجَنَّةِ
Ubaidullah bin Ziyad came to visit Sayyiduna Ma'qil bin Yasar (may Allah be pleased with him) during the illness in which he passed away. Sayyiduna Ma'qil (may Allah be pleased with him) said to him, "I will tell you a hadith which I heard from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). He said: 'When Allah Almighty appoints a servant as a ruler over some subjects, and he does not protect them with goodwill, he will not even smell the fragrance of Paradise.'"
