Hadith 663
أَخْبَرَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ، نا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ الْحَكَمِ النَّخَعِيُّ، عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ، عَنْ شَيْخٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: مَنْ بَدَا جَفَا، وَمَنِ اتَّبَعَ الصَّيْدَ غَفَلَ، وَمَنْ أَتَى أَبْوَابَ السُّلْطَانِ افْتُتِنَ، وَمَا ازْدَادَ عَبْدٌ مِنْ سُلْطَانٍ قُرْبًا إِلَّا ازْدَادَ مِنَ اللَّهِ بُعْدًا ".
Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), he said: "Whoever takes up residence in the wilderness will become harsh in temperament, whoever pursues hunting will become heedless, whoever frequents the doors of kings will fall into trials, and the closer a person gets to a king, the farther he becomes from Allah."
Hadith 664
أَخْبَرَنَا يَعْلَى بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ، بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ مِثْلَهُ، وَقَالَ: ((مَنْ لَزِمَ أَبْوَابَ السُّلْطَانِ)).
It is narrated from Ya'la bin Ubaid with the same chain, in it is that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "Whoever makes it a habit to frequent the doors of kings."
