The Prophet [SAW] said: "You will be keen for governorship but it will be regret and loss on the Day of Resurrection. What a good position it is when they are alive, but how miserable their state when they die (and leave it behind)."

أَخْبَرَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ سِنَانٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ حُمْرَانَ قَالَ عَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ

أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ «إِنَّكُمْ سَتَحْرِصُونَ عَلَى الْإِمَارَةِ وَإِنَّهَا سَتَكُونُ حَسْرَةً وَنَدَامَةً يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ فَنِعْمَتِ الْمُرْضِعَةُ وَبِئْسَتِ الْفَاطِمَةُ»
