وعن وائل بن حجر قال: سال سلمة بن يزيد الجعفي رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فقال: يا نبي الله ارايت إن قامت علينا امراء يسالونا حقهم ويمنعونا حقنا فما تامرنا؟ قال: «اسمعوا واطيعوا فإنما عليهم ما حملوا وعليكم ما حملتم» . رواه مسلم
Wa’il b. Hujr told that Salama b. Yazid al-Ju‘fi questioned God’s Messenger saying,Prophet of God, tell us what you command us to do if commanders arise over us who demand of us what is due to them and refuse us what is due to us.He replied,Listen and obey, for they are responsible only for what has been laid on them (cf. Al-Qur’an, 24:54) and you for what has been laid on you.Muslim transmitted it.
