"مَا بَعَث اللهُ مِن نَبِي، وَلا كَانَ بَعْدَه مِن خَلِيفَة إلا كَانَ له بِطَانَتَانِ: بِطانَةٌ تأْمُره بالْمعروفِ وتَنْهاه عن المُنْكَرِ، وَبِطَانَةٌ لا تَألُوه خَبَالًا، فَمَن وُقِى بِطانَة السّوء فَقَد وُقِى".

Collected by Nasāʾī, Aḥmad, Ibn Ḥibbān, Ṭabarānī, Nasāʾī's Kubrá, Suyūṭī'No ruler is appointed but he has tow groups of advisers: A group which urges him to do good and tells him not to do evil, and a group which does its best to corrupt him. Whoever is protected from their evil is indeed protected. And he (the ruler) belongs to the group that has the greater influence over him."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَا مِنْ وَالٍ إِلاَّ وَلَهُ بِطَانَتَانِ بِطَانَةٌ تَأْمُرُهُ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَتَنْهَاهُ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ وَبِطَانَةٌ لاَ تَأْلُوهُ خَبَالاً فَمَنْ وُقِيَ شَرَّهَا فَقَدْ وُقِيَ وَهُوَ مِنَ الَّتِي تَغْلِبُ عَلَيْهِ مِنْهُمَا
"Allah never sends a prophet or appoints a Khalifah but he has two groups of advisers: A group that tells him to do good and a group that tells him to do evil and urges him to do it. And the one who is truly protected is the one who is protected by Allah, the Mighty and Sublime."
عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ مَا بَعَثَ اللَّهُ مِنْ نَبِيٍّ وَلاَ اسْتَخْلَفَ مِنْ خَلِيفَةٍ إِلاَّ كَانَتْ لَهُ بِطَانَتَانِ بِطَانَةٌ تَأْمُرُهُ بِالْخَيْرِ وَبِطَانَةٌ تَأْمُرُهُ بِالشَّرِّ وَتَحُضُّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَالْمَعْصُومُ مَنْ عَصَمَ اللَّهُ ﷻ
'No prophet has eve been sent, nor has there been any Khalifah after him, but he has two groups of advisers, a group that tells him to do good and a group that tells him to do evil. Whoever is protected from the evil group, then he is indeed protected.
أَنَّهُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ مَا بُعِثَ مِنْ نَبِيٍّ وَلاَ كَانَ بَعْدَهُ مِنْ خَلِيفَةٍ إِلاَّ وَلَهُ بِطَانَتَانِ بِطَانَةٌ تَأْمُرُهُ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَتَنْهَاهُ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ وَبِطَانَةٌ لاَ تَأْلُوهُ خَبَالاً فَمَنْ وُقِيَ بِطَانَةَ السُّوءِ فَقَدْ وُقِيَ

Whoever is protected from their evil is indeed protected. And he (the ruler) belongs to the group that has the greater influence over him." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 4201)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَا مِنْ نَبِيٍّ وَلَا وَالى إِلَّا وَلَهُ بِطَانَتَانِ بِطَانَةٌ تَأْمُرُهُ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَبِطَانَةٌ لَا تَأْلُوهُ خَبَالًا وَمَنْ وُقِيَ شَرَّهُمَا فَقَدْ وُقِيَ وَهُوَ مِنَ الَّتِي تَغْلِبُ عَلَيْهِ مِنْهُمَا
[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "There is no Prophet or Khalifa except that he has two garments: one garment commands him to do good and forbids him from evil, and the other garment does not fit him with any disgrace. And whoever is protected from the evil garment, then he is protected." He repeated this three times, and he was with the majority of them."
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ مَا مِنْ نَبِيٍّ وَلَا خَلِيفَةٍ أَوْ قَالَ مَا مِنْ نَبِيٍّ إِلَّا وَلَهُ بِطَانَتَانِ بِطَانَةٌ تَأْمُرُهُ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَتَنْهَاهُ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ وَبِطَانَةٌ لَا تَأْلُوهُ خَبَالًا وَمَنْ وُقِيَ شَرَّ بِطَانَةِ السُّوءِ فَقَدْ وُقِيَ يَقُولُهَا ثَلَاثًا وَهُوَ مَعَ الْغَالِبَةِ عَلَيْهِ مِنْهُمَا
ذِكْرُ الْبَيَانِ بِأَنَّ كُلَّ نَبِيٍّ مِنَ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ كَانَتْ لَهُ بِطَانَتَانِ مَعْلُومَتَانِ
