Sahih Muslim, 364

Hasan reported:Ubaidullah b. Ziyad went to see Ma'qil b. Yasir and he was ailing. He ('Ubaidullah) inquired (about his health) to which he (Ma'qil) replied: I am narrating to you a hadith which I avoided narrating to you (before). Verily the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) observed: Allah does not entrust to his bondsman the responsibility of managing the affairs of his subjects and he dies as a dishonest (ruler) but Paradise is forbidden by Allah for such a (ruler). He (Ibn Ziyad) said: Why did you not narrate it to me before this day? He replied: I (in fact) did not narrate it to you as it was not (fit) for me to narrate that to you

Rapporté par Hasan رضي الله عنه : Ubaidullah ibn Ziyad est allé voir Ma’qil ibn Yasir alors qu’il était malade. Ubaidullah a pris de ses nouvelles et Ma’qil lui a répondu : « Je vais te raconter un hadith que je ne t’avais pas transmis auparavant. Le Messager d’Allah ﷺ a dit : “Allah ne confie pas à un serviteur la gestion des affaires de ses sujets, puis il meurt en étant malhonnête, sans qu’Allah ne lui interdise le Paradis.” » Ibn Ziyad a demandé : « Pourquoi ne me l’as-tu pas raconté plus tôt ? » Il a répondu : « Je ne te l’ai pas transmis car ce n’était pas approprié pour moi de le faire avant. »
