It is reported about Sayyiduna Hakim bin Hizam (may Allah be pleased with him) that he sold a house of his to Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) for sixty thousand. The people said: By Allah, O Mu'awiyah, he has cheated you! Sayyiduna Hakim bin Hizam (may Allah be pleased with him) said: By Allah, I acquired (this house) in the Jahiliyyah for a single skin of wine, and I call you to witness that this (entire sum) is dedicated to the way of Allah, to the needy and to freeing slaves. So which of us has been cheated?
