Hadith 23981

حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ ، قَالَ : أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ يَزِيدَ بْنِ جَابِرٍ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي زُرَيْقٌ مَوْلَى بَنِي فَزَارَةَ ، عَنْ مُسْلِمِ بْنِ قَرَظَةَ ، وَكَانَ ابْنَ عَمِّ عَوْفِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ عَوْفَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ ، يَقولُ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ : " خِيَارُ أَئِمَّتِكُمْ مَنْ تُحِبُّونَهُمْ وَيُحِبُّونَكُمْ ، وَتُصَلُّونَ عَلَيْهِمْ وَيُصَلُّونَ عَلَيْكُمْ ، وَشِرَارُ أَئِمَّتِكُمْ الَّذِينَ تُبْغِضُونَهُمْ وَيُبْغِضُونَكُمْ ، وَتَلْعَنُونَهُمْ وَيَلْعَنُونَكُمْ " ، قُلْنَا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، أَفَلَا نُنَابِذُهُمْ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ ؟ قَالَ : " لَا مَا أَقَامُوا لَكُمْ الصَّلَاةَ ، أَلَا وَمَنْ وُلِّيَ عَلَيْهِ أَمِيرٌ وَالٍ ، وَالٍفَرَآهُ يَأْتِي شَيْئًا مِنْ مَعْصِيَةِ اللَّهِ ، فَلْيُنْكِرْ مَا يَأْتِي مِنْ مَعْصِيَةِ اللَّهِ ، وَلَا يَنْزِعَنَّ يَدًا مِنْ طَاعَةٍ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Awf (may Allah be pleased with him) that I heard the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: "Your rulers will be those whom you love and they will love you, you will pray for them and they will pray for you. And your worst rulers will be those whom you hate and they will hate you, you will curse them and they will curse you." We said, "O Messenger of Allah! Should we not depose such rulers?" The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "No, as long as they establish prayer. However, if a ruler appoints a governor over you and you see him doing something in disobedience to Allah, then denounce that disobedience, but do not withdraw your hand from his obedience."
