Musnad Ahmad 1065 (Book 5, Hadith 484) #34710
Obedience to Allah Above All

SUMMARY: Obedience to Allah is more important than obedience to any human being.

It was narrated from 'Ali (رضي الله عنه) that The Prophet said: 'There is no obedience to any human being if it involves disobedience to Allah'.
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ زُبَيْدٍ، عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عُبَيْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ، رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنْ النَّبِيِّ قَالَ لَا طَاعَةَ لِبَشَرٍ فِي مَعْصِيَةِ اللَّهِ‏.‏

Obey God's commands above all else.

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith emphasizes the importance of obedience to God over any other form of obedience. It was narrated by 'Ali ibn Abi Talib, a companion of the Prophet Muhammad, that the Prophet said “There is no obedience to any human being if it involves disobedience to Allah”. This means that even if someone orders us to do something which goes against what God has commanded us, we should not obey them and instead follow what God has asked us. The hadith teaches us that our loyalty should be first and foremost towards God and His commands, rather than towards anyone else or anything else in this world. We must always remember that our ultimate goal in life is pleasing Him and following His commands above all else.
