حَدَّثَنَا أَزْهَرُ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ الرَّاسِبِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ، عَنْ عَبَّادِ بْنِ أَبِي عَلِيٍّ، عَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ: " وَيْلٌ لِلْأُمَرَاءِ، وَيْلٌ لِلْعُرَفَاءِ، وَيْلٌ لِلْأُمَنَاءِ، لَيَتَمَنَّيَنَّ أَقْوَامٌ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ أَنَّ ذَوَائِبَهُمْ كَانَتْ مُعَلَّقَةً بِالثُّرَيَّا، يَتَذَبْذَبُونَ بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ وَالْأَرْضِ، وَلَمْ يَكُونُوا عَمِلُوا عَلَى شَيْءٍ " (٢)، ،

English translation

It is narrated from Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: Destruction is for the rulers, chiefs, and government officials. On the Day of Resurrection, these people will wish that their forelocks were hanging from the star Thurayya and that they were suspended between the sky and the earth, but had not undertaken any responsibility.
