English translation

4207. It was narrated from Abū Sa‘eed that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: “Allāh never sends a prophet or appoints a Khalīfah but he has two groups of advisers: A group that tells him to do good and a group that tells him to do evil and urges him to do it. And the one who is truly protected is the one who is protected by Allāh, the Mighty and Sublime.” (Sahīh)

Arabic text

4202 - أَخْبَرَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي يُونُسُ، عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " مَا بَعَثَ اللَّهُ مِنْ نَبِيٍّ، وَلَا اسْتَخْلَفَ مِنْ خَلِيفَةٍ، إِلَّا كَانَتْ لَهُ بِطَانَتَانِ: بِطَانَةٌ تَأْمُرُهُ بِالْخَيْرِ، وَبِطَانَةٌ تَأْمُرُهُ بِالشَّرِّ وَتَحُضُّهُ عَلَيْهِ، وَالْمَعْصُومُ مَنْ عَصَمَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ "

Commentary

This thing is not specific to a Prophet or Caliph. Everyone invariably encounters with such situation. He gets good companions and bad as well. Fortunate is the one upon whom good companions and advisers are dominant and this does not come to pass without the Mercy of Allāh, Most High.
