وَقَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: حَدَّثَنَا الْقَوَارِيرِيُّ، ثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ، ثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ جَدِّي، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ؓ قَالَ:
إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ خَطَبَ النَّاسَ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ فَقَالَ: أَلَا إِنَّ الْأُمَرَاءَ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ، أَلَا إِنَّ الْأُمَرَاءَ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ، مَا أَقَامُوا بِثَلَاثٍ، مَا حَكَمُوا فَعَدَلُوا، وَمَا عَاهَدُوا فَوَفَوْا، وَمَا اسْتُرْحِمُوا فَرَحِمُوا، فَمَنْ لَمْ يَفْعَلْ ذَلِكَ مِنْهُمْ فَعَلَيْهِ لَعْنَةُ اللهِ وَالْمَلَائِكَةِ وَالنَّاسِ أَجْمَعِينَ

✧ The Messenger of God ﷺ addressed the people one day and said: "Verily, the rulers are from Quraysh. Verily, the rulers are from Quraysh, as long as they uphold three things: when they judge, they are just; when they make a covenant, they fulfill it; and when they are asked for mercy, they show mercy. Whoever among them does not do that, upon him is the curse of God, the angels, and all people."
