Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 9272

عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَقُولُ : أَنَا اللَّهُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنَا مَالِكُ الْمُلُوكِ وَمَلِكُ الْمُلُوكِ ، قُلُوبُ الْمُلُوكِ بِيَدِي ، وَإِنَّ الْعِبَادَ إِذَا أَطَاعُونِي حَوَّلْتُ قُلُوبَ مُلُوكِهِمْ عَلَيْهِمْ بِالرَّأْفَةِ وَالرَّحْمَةِ ، وَإِنَّ الْعِبَادَ إِذَا عَصَوْنِي حَوَّلْتُ قُلُوبَهُمْ عَلَيْهِمْ بِالسَّخَطِ وَالنِّقْمَةِ فَسَامُوهُمْ سُوءَ الْعَذَابِ ، فَلَا تَشْغَلُوا أَنْفُسَكُمْ بِالدُّعَاءِ عَلَى الْمُلُوكِ وَلَكِنِ اشْغَلُوا أَنْفُسَكُمْ بِالذِّكْرِ وَالتَّضَرُّعِ ، أَكْفِكُمْ مُلُوكَكُمْ " .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْأَوْسَطِ ، وَفِيهِ وَهْبُ بْنُ رَاشِدٍ ، وَهُوَ مَتْرُوكٌ .
Sayyiduna Abu al-Darda' (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, Allah Almighty says: 'I am Allah; there is no god besides Me. I am the Owner of kings and the King of kings. The hearts of kings are in My Hand. When the servants obey Me, I turn the hearts of their kings towards them with gentleness and mercy; and when the servants disobey Me, I turn their hearts against them with displeasure and vengeance, and they (the rulers) inflict a terrible punishment upon them. So do not occupy yourselves with praying against the kings; rather, keep yourselves occupied with the remembrance of Allah Almighty and with humble supplication, and I will suffice you against your kings.'"
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat; its chain contains Wahb bin Rashid, who is matruk (abandoned).
