It is reported that Al-Fudayl bin Ayyad [Allah have mercy on
him] said,
‘If I had one
supplication that was going to be answered I would make it for the ruler
(imam), for the wellbeing and righteousness of the imam means wellbeing for the
land and its people.’
[Al-Dhahabi, Siyar A’lam Al-Nubala` in his biography of Al-Fudayl
b. Ayyad.]
