What teachings did the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) deliver about respecting rulers despite any disapproval?
 Narrated Ibn `Abbas:                     The Prophet said, "Whoever disapproves of something done by his ruler then he should be patient, for whoever disobeys the ruler even a little (little = a span) will die as those who died in the Pre-lslamic Period of Ignorance. (i.e. as rebellious Sinners).
