حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَي بْنُ يَحْيَي ، أَخْبَرَنَا الْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْحِزَامِيُّ ، عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ ، عَنْ الْأَعْرَجِ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " مَنْ أَطَاعَنِي فَقَدْ أَطَاعَ اللَّهَ ، وَمَنْ يَعْصِنِي فَقَدْ عَصَى اللَّهَ ، وَمَنْ يُطِعِ الْأَمِيرَ فَقَدْ أَطَاعَنِي ، وَمَنْ يَعْصِ الْأَمِيرَ فَقَدْ عَصَانِي " ،
It has been narrated on the authority of Abu Hurairah (RA) that the Holy prophet (ﷺ) said: Whoso obeys me obeys God, and whoso disobeys me disobeys God. Whoso obeys the commander (appointed by me) obeys me, and whoso disobeys the commander disobeys me.
