Sayyiduna Amr bin al-Hamiq (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that he heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "When Allah Almighty intends good for a servant, He makes him 'asal' (sweetens him)." Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Do you know what 'asal' is?" The Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) said: "Allah and His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) know best." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Allah Almighty opens for him the door of a righteous deed before his death, until his friends and loved ones and the people around him are pleased with him."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "This hadith is narrated from Sayyiduna Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) only with this chain; Mu'awiyah is alone in narrating it."
