7143. Narrated Ibn 'Abbās رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا: The Prophet ﷺ said, “If somebody sees his Muslim ruler doing something he disapproves of, he should be patient, for whoever disunite from Al-Jama'ah (the Muslim group) [i.e., becomes separate from the Muslim group] even for a span and then dies, he will die as those who died in the Pre-Islāmic Period of Ignorance (as rebellious sinners).” [Fath Al-Bari] [See Hadīth No. 7053]

Arabic text

7143 - حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، عَنِ الجَعْدِ، عَنْ أَبِي رَجَاءٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ يَرْوِيهِ، قَالَ: قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَنْ رَأَى مِنْ أَمِيرِهِ شَيْئًا فَكَرِهَهُ فَلْيَصْبِرْ، فَإِنَّهُ لَيْسَ أَحَدٌ يُفَارِقُ الجَمَاعَةَ شِبْرًا فَيَمُوتُ، إِلَّا مَاتَ مِيتَةً جَاهِلِيَّةً»
