Strive for justice & fairness when dealing with others; Serve & look after your people; Take responsibility as leaders & rulers; Show compassion towards those under your rule; Work hard for the betterment of your people .

This hadith is about the responsibility of a ruler towards their people. It is narrated on the authority of Abu Malik that Ubaidullah b. Ziyad visited Ma'qil b. Yaser in his illness and Ma'qil said to him that he was narrating a tradition which he heard from the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him). The tradition states that if a ruler has obtained control over the affairs of Muslims but does not strive for their betterment or serve them sincerely then they will not enter Paradise with them. This hadith emphasizes on how important it is for rulers to take care and look after their people as it is part of their responsibility as leaders and rulers to do so in order to gain rewards from God in return. It also teaches us that we should always strive for justice and fairness when dealing with others regardless if we are in power or not as this will lead us closer to God's mercy and blessings in this life and hereafter inshaAllah!
