A commander of the Muslims is a shield for them

Narrated Abu Huraira (RadhiAllahu 'anhu):

that the Prophet of Allah (salAllahu alayhi wa sallam) said:

A commander (of the Muslims) is a shield for them. They fight behind him and they are protected by (him from tyrants and aggressors). If he enjoins fear of God, the Exalted and Glorious, and dispenses justice, there will be a (great) reward for him; and if he enjoins otherwise, it redounds on him.

[Sahih Muslim - Book 20: Hadith 4542]
