حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو التَّيَّاحِ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ قَالَ ‏ "‏ اسْمَعُوا وَأَطِيعُوا، وَإِنِ اسْتُعْمِلَ حَبَشِيٌّ كَأَنَّ رَأْسَهُ زَبِيبَةٌ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the importance of obedience and listening to one's leader, no matter who they are. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ used an example of an Ethiopian with a raisin-like head to emphasize that it does not matter what someone looks like or where they come from; if they are in a position of leadership, we should obey them and listen to their orders. This hadith teaches us that we should respect authority figures and follow their instructions without question or hesitation. It also reminds us that everyone deserves respect regardless of their background or appearance.
