( أَخْبَرَنَا ) أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ فُورَكَ، أَنْبَأَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، ثَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ حَبِيبٍ، ثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، ثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ:
كُنَّا مَعَ جَرِيرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ فِي غَزْوَةٍ فَأَصَابَتْنَا مَخْمَصَةٌ، فَكَتَبَ جَرِيرٌ إِلَى مُعَاوِيَةَ ؓ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: مَنْ لَا يَرْحَمِ النَّاسَ لَا يَرْحَمْهُ اللهُ

We were with Jarīr b. ʿAbdullāh on a military expedition, and we were struck by severe hunger. So Jarīr wrote to Muʿāwiyah ؓ: I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: "Whoever does not show mercy to people, Allah will not show mercy to him."
