2007. Hudhaifah narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Do not let yourselves be 'yes-men',[1] saying: 'If the people are good then we will be good, and if they are wrong then we will be wrong.' Rather, make up your own minds, if the people are good then you are good, and if they are evil, then do not behave unjustly." (Hasan) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan Gharib, we do not know of it except from this route.
٢٠٠٧ - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو هِشَامٍ الرِّفَاعِيُّ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ فُضَيْلٍ ، عَنِ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ جُمَيْعٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي الطُّفَيْلِ، عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَا تَكُونُوا إِمَّعَةً»؛ تَقُولُونَ إِنْ أَحْسَنَ النَّاسُ أَحْسَنَّا وَإِنْ ظَلَمُوا ظَلَمْنَا، وَلَكِنْ وَطِّنُوا أَنْفُسَكُمْ؛ إِنْ أَحْسَنَ النَّاسُ أَنْ تُحْسِنُوا وَإِنْ أَسَاءُوا فَلَا تَظْلِمُوا هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ. لَا نَعْرِفُهُ إِلَّا مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ.

[1] Imma: "The one who has no opinion, so he follows everyone's opinion." (An-Nihāyah)
The Hadith teaches us that we must help people in their acts of righteousness and piety but, if they choose the path of evil, then we must not emulate their example.
