Volume 9, Book 89, Number 257:
Narrated Ibn 'Abbas:
The Prophet said, "If somebody sees his Muslim ruler doing something he disapproves of, he
should be patient, for whoever becomes separate from the Muslim group even for a span and then
dies, he will die as those who died in the Pre-lslamic period of ignorance (as rebellious sinners). (See
Hadith No. 176 and 177)
