Translation

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Hisham Bin Salim, from Jahm Bin Humeyd who said, ‘Abu Abdullah^asws said to me: ‘Do you not take protection of their Sultan (ruling authorities)?’ I said, ‘No’. He^asws said: ‘And why (not)?’ I said, ‘My Religion would flee from me’. He^asws said: ‘So are you determined upon that?’ I said, ‘Yes’. So he^asws said to me: ‘Now, your Religion is safe for you’.
