Question:
His saying:Sahih Muslim 2128?
Answer:
This was said about them that they are the police and their like, and everyone who takes whips to oppress people, whether they are called police, soldiers, troops, or otherwise, contains a warning for whoever oppresses people.
As for if they are in the right, there is no danger for them, but in most cases they may oppress people; for this reason, the hadith came in their condemnation.
