[Machine] That her father, when he became old, reached that point and came to seek permission at the door. So I sat next to my father and Ziyad entered and recognized death in my father's face. He said, "O Maqil, won't you provide for us (with knowledge)? For Allah used to benefit us with things we hear from you." My father said to him, "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, 'No leader of a nation, whether they are numerous or few, will act unjustly towards them without Allah bending him over on his face in the Hellfire.'" Then he lowered his head for a while, then looked down, and raised his head again and said, "O Maqil, have you heard anything from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ? Any teaching or advice?" He replied, "Yes, I have heard it from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ."
