حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ قَالَ أَنْبَأَنِي سَعْدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ مَعْبَدٍ الْجُهَنِيِّ قَالَ
كَانَ مُعَاوِيَةُ قَلَّمَا يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ شَيْئًا وَيَقُولُ: هَؤُلَاءِ الْكَلِمَاتِ، قَلَّمَا يَدَعُهُنَّ أَوْ يُحَدِّثُ بِهِنَّ فِي الْجُمَعِ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ: مَنْ يُرِدِ اللهُ بِهِ خَيْرًا يُفَقِّهْهُ فِي الدِّينِ، وَإِنَّ هَذَا الْمَالَ حُلْوٌ خَضِرٌ فَمَنْ يَأْخُذْهُ بِحَقِّهِ يُبَارَكْ لَهُ فِيهِ، وَإِيَّاكُمْ وَالتَّمَادُحَ فَإِنَّهُ الذَّبْحُ

✧ Mu'awiyah rarely narrated anything from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, but he would say these words: he rarely omitted them or narrated them at Friday gatherings, from the Prophet ﷺ: "Whoever Allah wills good for, He grants him understanding in the religion. This wealth is sweet and green: whoever takes it rightfully is blessed in it. Beware of excessive praise, for it is slaughter."
