وبالطريق الثاني عن الحسن قال مرض معقل بن يسار رضي الله عنه مرضا ثقل فيه فاتاه ابن زياد يعوده فقال إني محدثك حديثا سمعته من رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم يقول ”من استرعي رعية فلم يحطهم بنصيحة لم يجد ريح الجنة وريحها يوجد من مسيرة مائة عام“ قال ابن زياد الا كنت حدثتني بهذا قبل الآن قال والآن لولا الذي انت عليه لم احدثك به
(Second chain) It is narrated from Hasan that Sayyiduna Ma'qil bin Yasar (may Allah be pleased with him) fell ill, and his illness became severe. Ibn Ziyad came to visit him. Sayyiduna Ma'qil (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I will tell you a hadith. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever is given authority and does not treat his subjects well, he will not even smell the fragrance of Paradise, though its fragrance can be perceived from a distance of one hundred years. Ibn Ziyad said: Why did you not narrate this hadith before? Sayyiduna Ma'qil (may Allah be pleased with him) said: If you were not in the position you are now, even now I would not have narrated this hadith to you.
