A hadith and commentary. The Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said: "Whoever sees something from their leader that they dislike, let them be patient, for there is no one who separates from the community by even a span and then dies, but that they die a death of the pre-Islamic era of ignorance (Jahiliyyah)." Agreed upon. Commentary: Hearing and obeying [the leaders] and adhering to the community are among the fundamental principles of the Ahl al-Sunnah wal-Jama'ah. As for rebelling, acting unilaterally, and disputing the authority of those in power, these are among the hallmarks of the people of misguidance, among whom are the Khawarij and the Mu'tazilah.
