أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ خَلَّادٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ يَزِيدَ بْنِ جَابِرٍ، عَنْ رُزَيْقٍ أَبِي الْمِقْدَامِ، عَنْ مُسْلِمِ بْنِ قُرَظَةَ، عَنْ عَوْفِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ الْأَشْجَعِيِّ ؓ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ:
" إِنَّ خِيَارَ أَئِمَّتِكُمُ الَّذِينَ تُحِبُّونَهُمْ وَيُحِبُّونَكُمْ، وَإِنَّ شِرَارَ أَئِمَّتِكُمُ الَّذِينَ تُبْغِضُونَهُمْ، وَيُبْغِضُونَكُمْ، وَتَدْعُونَ عَلَيْهِمْ وَيَدْعُونَ عَلَيْكُمْ " قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ: أَفَلَا نُبَادِيهِمْ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ ؟ قَالَ: " لَا مَا صَلَّوْا، وَمَنْ وُلِّيَ عَلَيْهِ وَالٍ فَرَآهُ يَأْتِي شَيْئًا مِنْ مَعْصِيَةِ اللهِ فَلْيَكْرَهْ مَا يَأْتِي مِنْ مَعْصِيَةِ اللهِ وَلَا يَنْزِعْ يَدًا مِنْ طَاعَةٍ

✧ "The best of your leaders are those whom you love and they love you. The worst of your leaders are those whom you hate and they hate you, and you curse them and they curse you." They said: "O Messenger of God, should we not then oppose them?" He said: "No, as long as they pray. Whoever has a ruler appointed over him and sees him committing something of disobedience to God, let him hate that act of disobedience to God but not withdraw his hand from obedience."
