It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: There will be some rulers who will be of a vile nature, and many wicked people will be with them. They will commit oppression and tell lies. Whoever goes to them and affirms their lies and assists them in their oppression, he has nothing to do with me and I have nothing to do with him. And whoever does not go to them, does not affirm their lies, and does not help them in their oppression, he is from me and I am from him.
