Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Every prophet and ruler has two confidants; one confidant commands him to do good and forbids him from evil, and the other leaves no stone unturned in seeking his destruction and ruin. The ruler who is saved from his evil is indeed protected, and he is with the one who prevails among them.
