Hadith 59

Sahih Muslim

Book 33: The Book on Government

Chapter 8

The obligation of obeying leaders in matters that do not involve sin, but it is forbidden to obey them in sinful matters

باب وُجُوبِ طَاعَةِ الأُمَرَاءِ فِي غَيْرِ مَعْصِيَةٍ وَتَحْرِيمِهَا فِي الْمَعْصِيَةِ ‏‏

Sahih Muslim 1838d
وَحَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ بِشْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ حَبَشِيًّا مُجَدَّعًا وَزَادَ أَنَّهَا سَمِعَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِمِنًى أَوْ بِعَرَفَاتٍ ‏.
Another version of the tradition does not qualify the slave with the epithets" maimed,"" an Abyssinian" but makes the addition:

" I have heard the Prophet (ﷺ) (say this) at Mina or 'Arafat."
