عن ابنِ عُمرَ رضي الله عنهما، أنَّ النبيَّ ﷺ قال: «عَلَى الْمَرْءِ الْمُسْلِمِ السَّمْعُ وَالطَّاعَةُ فِيمَا أَحَبَّ وَكَرِهَ؛ إِلَّا أَنْ يُؤْمَرَ بِمَعْصِيَةٍ، فَإِنْ أُمِرَ بِمَعْصِيَةٍ، فَلَا سَمْعَ وَلَا طَاعَةَ».
92 - Rights due to governors
‘Abdullāh ibn ꜤUmar narrated that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said:
A Muslim person has the duty to listen and obey, in whatever he likes or dislikes, unless he is ordered to disobey God. If he is ordered some disobedience of God, then he neither listens nor obeys.
Summary of Meaning
Every Muslim is duty-bound to listen and obey those who are in charge of the affairs of the Muslim community, unless he or she are bidden to disobey God. No person may be obeyed in what constitutes disobedience of God, the Creator
