Majma al-Zawaid 9099 — Holding to the community, obeying the rulers

وَعَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - أَنَّهُ قَالَ : " اثْنَانِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ وَاحِدٍ ، وَثَلَاثَةٌ خَيْرٌ مِنِ اثْنَيْنِ ، وَأَرْبَعَةٌ خَيْرٌ مِنْ ثَلَاثَةٍ ، فَعَلَيْكُمْ بِالْجَمَاعَةِ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ - عَزَّ وَجَلَّ - لَمْ يَجْمَعْ أُمَّتِي إِلَّا عَلَى هُدَى " .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَفِيهِ الْبَخْتَرِيُّ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ ، وَهُوَ ضَعِيفٌ .
Sayyiduna Abu Dharr al-Ghifari (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates this saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "Two are better than one, three are better than two, and four are better than three. So you must stay with the community (jama'ah), for Allah Almighty will gather my Ummah only upon guidance."
Ahmad recorded it. Its chain contains al-Bakhtari bin Ubayd, who is da'if (weak).
