وَصَفْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) مَنْ يَقُولُ بِهَذَا الْأَمْرِ مِمَّنْ يَعْمَلُ عَمَلَ السُّلْطَانِ فَقَالَ إِذَا وَلُوكُمْ يُدْخِلُونَ عَلَيْكُمُ الرِّفْقَ وَ يَنْفَعُونَكُمْ فِي حَوَائِجِكُمْ قَالَ قُلْتُ مِنْهُمْ مَنْ يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ وَ مِنْهُمْ مَنْ لَا يَفْعَلُ قَالَ مَنْ لَمْ يَفْعَلْ ذَلِكَ مِنْهُمْ فَابْرَءُوا مِنْهُ بَرِئَ اللَّهُ مِنْهُ .


Translation

A number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Al Barqy, from Ali Bin Abu Rashid, from Ibrahim Bin Al Sandy, from Yunus Bin Ammar who said, ‘I described to Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> the ones who are speaking with this matter (<span class="iTxt">Wilayah</span>) from the ones who are office-bearers of the Sultan (ruling authority), so he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘When they rule over you they would be including the leniency over you and they would be benefitting you regarding your needs’. I said, ‘Among them are the ones who do that and among them are ones who don’t’. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘The one who does not do that so disavow from him by the Disavowing of Allah<sup>azwj</sup> from him’.
