It is narrated from Hasan that Sayyiduna ‘A’idh bin ‘Amr (may Allah be pleased with him), who was a companion of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), went to ‘Ubaydullah bin Ziyad and said to him, “O my son! I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: ‘The worst shepherd is an unjust ruler (who destroys his subjects),’ so do not be like that.” ‘Ubaydullah said, “Sit down, for you are the husk among the companions of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him).” Sayyiduna ‘A’idh (may Allah be pleased with him) said, “Is there husk among the companions of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)? The husk is among those who come after and among other people.”
