اُردوEn
عَنْ أَبِي الْخَيْرِ قَالَ عَرَضَ مَسْلَمَةُ بْنُ مَخْلَدٍ وَكَانَ أَمِيرًا عَلَى مِصْرَ عَلَى رُوَيْفِعِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنْ يُوَلِّيَهُ الْعُشُورَ فَقَالَ إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ صَاحِبُ الْمَكْسِ فِي النَّارِ
It is narrated from Abu al-Khair that the governor of Egypt, Muslima bin Makhlad, presented this request before Sayyiduna Rufa’ bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him) that he appoint him as the collector of taxes. But he said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say that the one who collects taxes is from the people of Hell.
