حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُسْهِرٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنِي عَبَّادُ بْنُ عَبَّادٍ الْخَوَّاصُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي عَمْرٍو السَّيْبَانِيِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ السَّيْبَانِيِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَوْفِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ الْأَشْجَعِيِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏يَقُولُ:‏‏‏‏ لَا يَقُصُّ إِلَّا أَمِيرٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَوْ مَأْمُورٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَوْ مُخْتَالٌ .

I heard the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم say: Only a ruler, or one put in charge, or one who is presumptuous, gives instructions.
