It has been narrated on the authority of Yahya b. Husain who learnt the tradition from his grandmother. She said that she heard the Prophet (ﷺ) delivering his sermon on the occasion of the Last Pilgrimage. He was saying:If a slave is appointed over you and he conducts your affairs according to the Book of Allah, you should listen to him and obeey (his orders)Rapporté par Yahya b. Husain, qui a appris cette tradition de sa grand-mère : Elle a dit avoir entendu le Prophète ﷺ prononcer un sermon lors du dernier pèlerinage. Il disait : « Si un esclave est désigné comme responsable sur vous et qu’il gère vos affaires selon le Livre d’Allah, alors écoutez-le et obéissez-lui. »Grades given by scholars
