Musnad Ahmad 16839

Translation

✧ Mu'awiyah said on the pulpit: "O Allah, there is none to withhold what You give, and none to give what You withhold, and the fortune of the fortunate avails nothing against You. Whoever Allah wills good for, He grants him understanding in the religion. I heard these words from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on this pulpit."
