So that they may be the rulers over the people of other religions.
Yahya: From Abd al-Rahman ibn Yazid, from [Sulaym] ibn Amir al-Kala'i, who said: I heard al-Miqdad ibn al-Aswad saying: I heard the Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) saying: "There will not remain upon the face of the earth any house of mud-brick nor of wool (tent), except that Allah will cause the word of Islam to enter it, by the honor of the honorable or the humiliation of the humiliated; either Allah grants them honor and makes them among its people, or He humiliates them and they submit to it."
فَيَكُونُوا الْحُكَّامَ عَلَى أَهْلِ الْأَدْيَانِ.
يَحْيَى: عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ يَزِيدٍ، عَنْ [سُلَيْمِ] بِنْ عَامِرٍ الْكَلَاعِيِّ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ الْمِقْدَادَ بْنَ الْأَسْوَدِ يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ يَقُولُ: " لَا يَبْقَى عَلَى ظَهْرِ الْأَرْضِ بَيْتُ مَدَرٍ وَلَا وَبَرٍ، إِلَّا أَدْخَلَهُ اللَّهُ كَلِمَةَ الْإِسْلَامِ بِعِزِّ عَزِيزٍ أَوْ ذُلِّ ذَلِيلٍ؛ إِمَّا يُعِزُّهُمُ اللَّهُ فَيَجْعَلُهُمْ مِنْ أَهْلِهَا، وِإِمَّا يُذِلُّهُمْ فَيَدِينُونَ لَهَا "
