حَدَّثَنَا بُنْدَارٌ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ حَدَّثَنَا حُمَيْدُ بْنُ مِهْرَانَ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ أَوْسٍ عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ کُسَيْبٍ الْعَدَوِيِّ قَالَ کُنْتُ مَعَ أَبِي بَکْرَةَ تَحْتَ مِنْبَرِ ابْنِ عَامِرٍ وَهُوَ يَخْطُبُ وَعَلَيْهِ ثِيَابٌ رِقَاقٌ فَقَالَ أَبُو بِلَالٍ انْظُرُوا إِلَی أَمِيرِنَا يَلْبَسُ ثِيَابَ الْفُسَّاقِ فَقَالَ أَبُو بَکْرَةَ اسْکُتْ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ مَنْ أَهَانَ سُلْطَانَ اللَّهِ فِي الْأَرْضِ أَهَانَهُ اللَّهُ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَی هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ
جامع ترمذی · Hadith 2224
Ziyad bin Kusaib Al-'Adawi said: I was with Abu Bakrah under the Minbar of Ibn 'Amir while he was giving a Khutbah wearing a fine garment. Abu Bilal said: 'Look at our Amir wearing clothes of wickedness!' So Abu Bakrah said: Be quiet! I heard the Messenger of Allah(s.a.w) saying: Whoever insults Allah's Sultan on the earth, Allah disgraces him.
