Hasan al-Basri narrates: I heard Sayyiduna Jundub (may Allah be pleased with him) narrate from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "What will your state be when you are among people whose leaders will enter Paradise while those who follow them (the leaders) will enter Hell? The people submitted: O Messenger of Allah! Even if they act like them? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Even if they have acted like them. The people submitted: O Messenger of Allah! How will that be? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Their leaders will enter Paradise on account of what they had done earlier, and the followers will enter Hell because of what they did afterwards."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat; its chain contains a narrator, al-Salt bin Dinar, and he is matruk (abandoned).
