[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The rulers from the Quraysh say three things: 'I have rights over you, and you have rights over me, based on what they have done for you in three areas: they do not show mercy when they are merciful, they are not just when they divide, and they are not fair when they judge."
