عن طارق بن شهاب البجلي الأحمسي رضي الله عنه أنّ رجُلًا سأل النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم وقد وضَع رِجله في الغَرْزِ: أَيُّ الجهاد أفضل؟ قال: «كَلِمَةُ حَقًّ عِند سُلطَان جَائِرٍ».
Kutoka kwa Twariq bin Shihabi Al bajaliy Al Ahmashiy -Radhi za Mwenyezi Mungu ziwe juu yake- Yakwamba mtu mmoja alimuuliza Mtume -Rehema na Amani ziwe juu yake- na mguu wake ukiwa tayari umeuweka kwenye kipandwa (yaani yuko tayari kwa safari): Ni jihadi ipi bora? Akasema: "Ni neno la haki kwa kiongozi muovu".
Tāriq ibn Shihāb al-Bajali al-Ahmasi (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that a man, who was set for travel, asked the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him): ''Which type of Jihad is better?'' He replied: "A word of truth said to a despotic ruler."
