وعن أبى هنيدة وائل بن حجر رضي الله عنه

قال: سأل سلمة بن يزيد الجعفي رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، فقال: يا نبي الله، أرأيت إن قامت علينا امراء يسألونا حقهم، ويمنعونا حقنا، فما تأمرنا؟ فأعرض عنه، ثم سأله، فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: «اسمعوا وأطيعو؛ فإنما عليهما حملوا، وعليكم ماحملتم»

Salamah ibn Yazid Al-Juf (radiyallahu anhu) asked Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam): “O Prophet of Allah! Tell us, what you command us to do if there arises over us rulers who demand of us what is due to them and refuse us what is due to us.” Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) turned away from him, but he repeated the same question.

Thereupon Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said, “Listen to them and obey them. They are responsible for their obligations and you are accountable for yours.”.
