وَقَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: وَجَدْتُ فِي كِتَابِي عَنْ سُوَيْدِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، فَشَكَكْتُ فِيهِ، وَأَكْثَرُ ظَنِّي أَنِّي سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْهُ عَنْ ضِمَامِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنْ أَبِي قَبِيلٍ، قَالَ:

خَطَبَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ ؓ فِي يَوْمِ جُمُعَةٍ، فَقَالَ: إِنَّمَا الْمَالُ مَالُنَا، وَالْفَيْءُ فَيْئُنَا، مَنْ شِئْنَا أَعْطَيْنَا، وَمَنْ شِئْنَا مَنَعْنَا، فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيْهِ أَحَدٌ. فَلَمَّا كَانَتِ الْجُمُعَةُ الثَّانِيَةُ، قَالَ مِثْلَ مَقَالَتِهِ، فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيْهِ أَحَدٌ، فَلَمَّا كَانَتِ الْجُمُعَةُ الثَّالِثَةُ قَالَ مِثْلَ مَقَالَتِهِ، فَقَامَ إِلَيْهِ رَجُلٌ مِمَّنْ شَهِدَ، فَقَالَ: كَلَّا، بَلِ الْمَالُ مَالُنَا، وَالْفَيْءُ فَيْئُنَا، فَمَنْ حَالَ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَهُ، حَاكَمْنَاهُ بِأَسْيَافِنَا، فَلَمَّا صَلَّى أَمَرَ بِالرَّجُلِ فَأُدْخِلَ عَلَيْهِ، فَأَجْلَسَهُ مَعَهُ عَلَى السَّرِيرِ، ثُمَّ أَذِنَ لِلنَّاسِ فَدَخَلُوا عَلَيْهِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنِّي تَكَلَّمْتُ فِي أَوَّلِ جُمُعَةٍ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ أَحَدٌ عَلَيَّ، وَفِي الثَّانِيَةِ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ أَحَدٌ عَلَيَّ، فَلَمَّا كَانَتِ الثَّالِثَةُ أَحْيَانِي هَذَا أَحْيَاهُ اللهُ، سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: سَيَأْتِي قَوْمٌ يَتَكَلَّمُونَ فَلَا يُرَدُّ عَلَيْهِمْ، يَتَقَاحَمُونَ فِي النَّارِ تَقَاحُمَ الْقِرَدَةِ، فَخَشِيتُ أَنْ يَجْعَلَنِي اللهُ مِنْهُمْ، فَلَمَّا رَدَّ عَلَيَّ هَذَا أَحْيَانِي أَحْيَاهُ اللهُ، وَرَجَوْتُ اللهَ أَنْ لَا يَجْعَلَنِي مِنْهُمْ

✧ Mu'awiya ؓ addressed us one Friday and said, 'The wealth is our wealth and the spoils are our spoils; we give to whom we will and withhold from whom we will,' and no one replied to him. The following Friday he said the same and no one replied. On the third Friday he said the same, and a man from those present stood up to him and said, 'No! Rather the wealth is our wealth and the spoils are our spoils; whoever comes between us and them, we will take him to judgment with our swords.' After praying, he ordered the man brought in and seated him with him on the couch, then permitted the people and they entered. He said, 'O people, I spoke on the first Friday and no one replied, and on the second and no one replied. On the third, this man revived me—may Allah revive him. I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: People will come who speak and are not contradicted; they will plunge into the Fire as monkeys plunge. I feared that Allah would make me one of them. When this man replied to me, he revived me—may Allah revive him—and I hope Allah will not make me one of them.'
