Model Behavior of the Prophet (Kitab Al-Sunnah)
Sunan Abī Dāwūd 4760
بِلِسَانِهِ فَقَدْ بَرِئَ، وَمَنْ كَرِهَ بِقَلْبِهِ فَقَدْ سَلِمَ وَلَكِنْ مَنْ رَضِيَ وَتَابَعَ
bilisānihi faqad bariʾa, waman kariha biqalbihi faqad salima walakin man raḍiya watābaʿa

The full narration
Umm Salamah, wife of the Prophet (May peace be upon him) is reported to have said:The Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) said: You will have commanders some of whom you will approve and some of whom you will disapprove. He who expresses disapproval with his tongue (Abu Dawud said : This is Hisham’s version) is guiltless; and he who feels disapproval in his heart, is safe, but he who is pleased and follows them. He was asked; shall we not kill them, Messenger of Allah? Abu Dawud’s version has : Shall we not fight with them? He replied : No, so long as they pray
