وَعَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّه عَلَيْهِ وَسلم قَالَ: إِنَّهَا سَتَكُونُ بَعْدِي أَثَرَةٌ وَأُمُورٌ تُنْكِرُونَهَا ! قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَمَا تَأْمُرُنَا؟ قَالَ: تُؤَدُّونَ الْحَقَّ الذى عَلَيْكُمْ ، وَتَسْأَلُونَ اللَّهَ الذى لَكُمْ ((مُتَّفَقٌ عَلَيْهِ)) .
Ibn Mas'ud (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "You will see after me favouritism and things which you will disapprove of." They submitted: "What do you order us to do (under such circumstances)?" He replied, "Discharge your obligations and ask your rights from Allah". [Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
