Jami' al-Saghir / Jam' al-Jawami' (al-Suyuti) 23485a
"مَنْ وَلِيَ مِنْ أُمُورِ الْمُسْلمينَ شَيئًا فَحَسُنَتْ سَرِيرَتُهُ، رُزِقَ الْهَيبَةَ مِنْ قُلُوبِهِمْ، وَإذَا بَسَطَ يَدَهُ لَهُمْ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ، رُزِقَ الْمَحَبَّةَ منْهُمْ، وَإذَا ادَّخَرَ عَلَيهِمْ أَمْوالهُمْ دَخِرَ عَلَيهِ مَالهُ، وَإذَا أَنْصَفَ الضَّعِيفَ مِنَ الْقَوب قَوَّى اللهُ سُلطَانَهُ، وإذَا عَدَلَ فِيهِمْ مُدَّ فِي عُمُرِهِ".

"Whoever is given authority over any matter of the Muslims and his inner intention is good, he is granted awe in their hearts. When he extends his hand to them with kindness, he is granted their love. When he hoards their wealth against them, his own wealth is hoarded against him. When he gives the weak justice against the strong, Allah strengthens his authority. When he is just towards them, his lifespan is extended."
