Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 9084 — Sayyiduna Thawban, the freed slave
حَدَّثَنَا مَسْلَمَةُ بْنُ جَابِرٍ اللَّخْمِيُّ ، نَا مُنَبِّهُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ ، نَا صَفْوَانُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو ، عَنْ شُرَيْحِ بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ . أَنَّ ثَوْبَانَ مَوْلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : لَعَلَّكَ أَنْ يُنْسَأَ فِي أَجَلِكَ حَتَّى تَكُونَ مِمَّنْ يُؤَمَّرُ عَلَى عَشَرَةٍ حِينَ يَسْكُنُ النَّاسُ الْكُفُورَ ، فَإِيَّاكَ أَنْ تُؤَمَّرَنَّ عَلَى عَشَرَةٍ فَمَا فَوْقَ ذَلِكَ ؛ فَإِنَّهُ لَا يُقَامُ رَجُلٌ عَلَى عَشَرَةٍ فَمَا فَوْقَ ذَلِكَ إِلَّا أَتَى اللهَ مَغْلُولًا يَدُهُ إِلَى عُنُقِهِ ، وَلَا يَفُكُّهُ مِنْ غُلِّهِ ذَلِكَ إِلَّا عَدْلٌ إِنْ كَانَ عَدَلَ بَيْنَهُمْ ، وَلَا تَعْمُرَنَّ الْكُفُورَ ؛ فَإِنَّ عَامِرَ الْكُفُورِ كَعَامِرِ الْقُبُورِ .

It is narrated from Shurayh bin Ubayd al-Hadrami (may Allah have mercy on him) that Sayyiduna Thawban (may Allah be pleased with him), the freed slave of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), said that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Perhaps your life will be prolonged until you are among those who are made leaders over ten men, when people settle in the villages. So beware lest you be made a leader over ten or more, for no man is placed in authority over ten or more except that he will come before Allah with his hand fettered to his neck, and nothing will free him from that fetter except justice, if he had been just among them. And do not settle the villages, for the one who settles the villages is like the one who settles the graves."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "This hadith, with the words 'There is no leader of ten', is narrated from Sayyiduna Thawban (may Allah be pleased with him) only with this chain; Safwan bin Amr is alone in narrating it."
