حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنُ بْنُ الرَّبِيعِ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ عَنِ الْجَعْدِ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ عَنْ أَبِي رَجَاءٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَنْ رَأَى مِنْ أَمِيرِهِ شَيْئًا يَكْرَهُهُ فَلْيَصْبِرْ فَإِنَّهُ مَنْ خَالَفَ الْجَمَاعَةَ شِبْرًا فَمَاتَ فَمِيتَتُهُ جَاهِلِيَّةٌ
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 2487
It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbas (RA) said: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said: "Whoever sees something in his leader that he dislikes, let him be patient, for whoever differs a handspan from the main body of the Muslims ( jama' ah ) and dies, his death will be a death of Jahiliyyah."
