English Translation
Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: 'There will be rulers who do things that are recognized (as good) and things that are objectionable. Whoever opposes them will be saved, whoever stays away from them will be safe, and whoever mingles with them will be destroyed.'
