The Book on Government
باب وُجُوبِ طَاعَةِ الأُمَرَاءِ فِي غَيْرِ مَعْصِيَةٍ وَتَحْرِيمِهَا فِي الْمَعْصِيَةِ
The obligation of obeying leaders in matters that do not involve sin, but it is forbidden to obey them in sinful matters
وَحَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ بِشْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ حَبَشِيًّا مُجَدَّعًا وَزَادَ أَنَّهَا سَمِعَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِمِنًى أَوْ بِعَرَفَاتٍ
Another version of the tradition does not qualify the slave with the epithets" maimed,"" an Abyssinian" but makes the addition: " I have heard the Prophet (ﷺ) (say this) at Mina or 'Arafat."
