"إِنَّ أحبَّ الناسِ إِلى اللَّهِ تعالى يومَ القيامة وأدناهُم منه مجلسًا إِمامٌ عادلٌ، وَأبْغَضُ الناس إِلى اللَّهِ تعالى وأبعدُهم منه مجلسًا، وفى لفظ: أشَدُّهم عَذَابًا إِمَامٌ جَائرٌ".

“Indeed, the people most beloved to Allah the Exalted on the Day of Resurrection and nearest to Him in position is a just ruler. And the people most hated by Allah the Exalted and farthest from Him in position—and in another wording: the most severely punished—is an oppressive ruler.”
