Question:
The hadith: What is its grade of authenticity?
Answer:
I do not know its status, nor have I traced its chain of narration, but the implications of the evidence support this; because humiliating him lowers his status in the eyes of people, weakens his authority, and leads people to be lenient with him. Therefore, it is obligatory to respect him and to listen to and obey him in what is right, so that he is respected, feared, and people feel safe.
