hadith 2360
Imam Ali (AS) said, ‘The Prophet (SAWA) dispatched an army, over whom he appointed a commander and ordered them to listen to him and to obey him. He [the commander] set ablaze a fire and ordered them to jump in it. Some people refused to enter it, saying, ‘Verily we flee from the fire, whilst others intended to enter it. The Prophet (SAWA) was informed of this, about which he (SAWA) said, ‘Had they entered it, they would have remained therein forever [i.e. the Hellfire]. And he said, ‘There is no obedience due to [one who calls to] Allahs disobedience. Rather obedience is due [when calling] for the good.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): بَعَثَ النَّبيُّ (صَلَّيَ اللهُ عَلَيهِ وَ آلِهِ) جَيْشا وأمَّرَ عَلَيْهِمْ رَجُلاً وأمَرَهُمْ أنْ يَسْتَمِعوا لَهُ ويُطيعوا، فأجَّجَ نارا وأمَرَهُمْ أنْ يَقْتَحِموا فيها، فأبى قومٌ أنْ يَدْخُلوها وقالوا: إنّا فَرَرْنا مِنَ النّار. وأرادَ قومٌ أنْ يَدْخُلوها، فَبَلَغَ ذلكَ النّبيَّ (صَلَّيَ اللهُ عَلَيهِ وَ آلِهِ) فقالَ: لو دَخَلوها لَم يَزالوا فيها، وقالَ: لا طاعةَ في مَعْصيةِ اللّهِ، إنّما الطّاعةُ في المَعْروفِ.
