[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever is entrusted with the responsibility of taking care of a group of people, but deceives them, then he will be in the Hellfire."  

أحمد:٢٠٢٨٩حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا سَوَادَةُ بْنُ أَبِي الْأَسْوَدِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ مَعْقِلِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَيُّمَا رَاعٍ اسْتُرْعِيَ رَعِيَّةً فَغَشَّهَا فَهُوَ فِي النَّارِ
