It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever becomes a ruler over ten or more people, on the Day of Resurrection he will be brought before Allah Almighty in such a state that his hand will be tied to his neck; his good deeds will free him or his sins will destroy him. At the beginning of this authority is blame, in the middle is regret, and its end on the Day of Resurrection is disgrace.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: The Imam and ruler is a shield, behind whom fighting is done against the enemy and by means of whom one is protected from the enemy’s attacks.

عن ابي سعيد الخدري رضي الله عنه قال قلت والله ما ياتي علينا امير إلا وهو شر من الماضي ولا عام إلا وهو شر من الماضي قال لولا شيء سمعته من رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم لقلت مثل ما يقول ولكن سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم يقول ”إن من امرائكم اميرا يحثي المال حثيا ولا يعده عدا ياتيه الرجل فيساله فيقول خذ فيبسط الرجل ثوبه فيحثي فيه“ وبسط رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم ملحفة غليظة كانت عليه يحكي صنيع الرجل ثم جمع إليه اكنافها قال ”فياخذه ثم ينطلق“
Abu al-Wadaak says: I said: Every ruler who comes over us is worse than the previous one, and every coming year is worse than the last. Upon hearing this, Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) said: If I had not heard a hadith from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), I would have said the same. I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: A ruler will come over you who will distribute wealth abundantly, without even counting it. Whoever comes to him and asks, he will say: Take it away. So that person will spread out his cloth and fill it up and take it away. At that time, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had a thick sheet over him; he spread it out and demonstrated how that person would fill it, then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) held the edges of the sheet and showed it. And he said: He will take away the sheet filled with wealth like this.
