Waleed bin Abdul Malik was fond of wealth, property and buildings. In his time, people used to ask each other in the morning about building houses, digging canals and growing trees.
Sulaiman bin Abdul Malik was fond of eating, drinking and playing songs. During his time, people used to ask for good food, dancing and singing.
When the era of Hazrat Umar bin Abdul Aziz (may God have mercy on him) came, the conversation between people used to be something like this.
"How much have you memorized the Quran???
How much do you recite every night???
How many nawafil should be recited at night?
It was confirmed that the people follow the footsteps of their rulers.
If the rulers violate the values of corruption, nepotism, cruelty, justice and fairness, ignorance and the values of religion, then the subjects will also be misguided.
Therefore, the peaceful struggle to hand over power from wicked rulers to righteous, capable and pious people is not only politics but a requirement of religion.
