the humble person every day and night is like the deeds of sixty friends all of whom are servants who strive hard in themselves. this is a great rank that is not given in every age except to one person. rather this rank is attained through justice and humility. abu saeed alkhudri narrated on the authority of the messenger of god may god bless him and grant him peace that he said seven will be shaded by god on the day of resurrection when there will be no shade except his shade a just leader a young man who grew up in the worship of god a man whose heart is attached to the mosque when he leaves it until he returns to it and two men who love each other for the sake of god and come together on that. and they parted on him and a man who remembered god in private and his eyes overflowed and a man who was invited by a woman of noble lineage and beauty to herself and he said i fear god lord of the worlds and a man who gave charity and concealed it so that his left hand did not know what his right hand was spending. these are seven things that cannot be imagined to come together except in the commander of the faithful and other than him from creation is able to achieve them individually and not all of them together so let him strive to attain a rank that has been saved only for him and no one else will attain it. abu saeed alkhudri also narrated that he said the most beloved of the servants to god almighty and the closest to him. a just leader is the most hated of people to allah and the most severely punished on the day of resurrection is a tyrannical leader. abu hurairah narrated on the authority of the prophet may allah bless him and grant him peace who said there are three for whom allah will not reject the supplication of a just leader a fasting person until he breaks his fast and an oppressed person who says allah by my glory and majesty and my elevation above my throne i will surely help you even if it takes a while. abdullah bin masoud narrated that he may allah bless him and grant him peace said an hour of justice is better than a year of worship and the heavens and the earth were established by justice. it was narrated on the authority of ibn abbas reported that the prophet may god bless him and grant him peace said by him in whose hand is the soul of muhammad god will raise for the just ruler every day the equivalent of the deeds of his subjects and his prayers in one day are equal to ninety thousand prayers.
المتواضع في كل يوم وليلة عمل ستين صديقا كلهم عبد مجتهد في نفسه فهذه رتبة عظيمة لا تسلم في كل عصر إلا لواحد وانما تنال هذه الرتبة بالعدل والتواضع وقد روى أبو سعيد الخدرى عن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم أنه قال سبعة يظلهم الله يوم القيامة يوم لا ظل إلا ظله إمام عادل وشاب نشأ في عبادة الله ورجل قلبه متعلق بالمسجد إذا خرج من حتى يعود إليه ورجلان تحابا في الله فاجتمعا على ذلك وتفرقا عليه ورجل ذكر الله خاليا ففاضت عيناه ورجل دعته امرأة ذات حسب وجمال إلى نفسها فقال أني أخاف الله رب العالمين ورجل تصدق بصدقة وأخفاها حتى لا تعلم شماله ما تنفق يمينه فهذه سبع لا يتصور اجتماعها إلا في أمير المؤمنين وإنما يقدر غيره من الخلق على آحادها دون مجموعها فليجتهد في نيل رتبة لم تدخر إلا له ولن يقوم بها سواه فقد روى ايضا أبو سعيد الخدرى أنه قال إن أحب العباد إلى الله تعالى وأقربهم منه مجلسا إمام عادل وإن أبغض الناس إلى الله وأشدهم عذابا يوم القيامة إمام جائر وقد روى أبو هريرة عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال ثلاثة لا يرد الله لهم دعوة الإمام العادل والصائم حتى يفطر والمظلوم يقول الله وعزتي وجلالي وارتفاعي فوق عرشي لأنتصرن لك ولو بعد حين وقد روى عبد الله بن مسعود أنه قال صلى الله عليه وسلم عدل ساعة خير من عبادة سنة وإنما قامت السموات والأرض بالعدل وقد روى عن ابن عباس أنه صلى الله عليه وسلم قال والذي نفس محمد بيده إن الوالي العدل ليرفع الله له كل يوم مثل عمل رعيته وصلواته في اليوم تعدل تسعين ألف صلاة
