حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ،‏‏‏‏ أَنْبَأَنَا جَرِيرٌ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ سَمُرَةَ بْنِ سَهْمٍ،‏‏‏‏ رَجُلٍ مِنْ قَوْمِهِ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ نَزَلْتُ عَلَى أَبِي هَاشِمِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ وَهُوَ طَعِينٌ،‏‏‏‏ فَأَتَاهُ مُعَاوِيَةُ يَعُودُهُ،‏‏‏‏ فَبَكَى أَبُو هَاشِمٍ،‏‏‏‏ فَقَالَ مُعَاوِيَةُ:‏‏‏‏ مَا يُبْكِيكَ؟ أَيْ خَالِ أَوَجَعٌ يُشْئِزُكَ،‏‏‏‏ أَمْ عَلَى الدُّنْيَا فَقَدْ ذَهَبَ صَفْوُهَا،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ عَلَى كُلٍّ لَا،‏‏‏‏ وَلَكِنْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَهِدَ إِلَيَّ عَهْدًا وَدِدْتُ أَنِّي كُنْتُ تَبِعْتُهُ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّكَ لَعَلَّكَ تُدْرِكُ أَمْوَالًا تُقْسَمُ بَيْنَ أَقْوَامٍ،‏‏‏‏ وَإِنَّمَا يَكْفِيكَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ خَادِمٌ وَمَرْكَبٌ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ ،‏‏‏‏ فَأَدْرَكْتُ فَجَمَعْتُ.

A man from his people – Samurah bin Sahm – said: “We stopped with Abu Hashim bin ‘Utbah رضی اللہ عنہ , who had been stabbed, and Mu’awiyah رضی اللہ عنہ came to visit him. Abu Hashim رضی اللہ عنہ wept and Mu’awiyah رضی اللہ عنہ said to him: ‘Why are you weeping, O maternal uncle? Is there some pain bothering you, or is it because of this world, the best of which has already passed?’ He said: ‘It is not for any of these reasons. But the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) gave me some advice and I wish that I had followed it. He (ﷺ) said: “There may come a time when you will see wealth divided among the people, and all you will need of that is a servant and a mount to ride in the cause of Allah.” That time came, but I accumulated wealth.’”
