Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو التَّيَّاحِ عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ اسْمَعُوا وَأَطِيعُوا وَإِنْ اسْتُعْمِلَ عَلَيْكُمْ حَبَشِيٌّ كَأَنَّ رَأْسَهُ زَبِيبَةٌ.

Yahya ibn Sa'id narrated to us: Shu'bah narrated to us: Abu al-Tayyah narrated to us, from Anas, who said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Listen and obey, even if an Abyssinian is put in charge over you, as though his head were a raisin."
