Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 32572 — Reports on talk about rulers
٣٢٥٧٢ - حدثنا (عبيد اللَّه) (١) قال: أخبرنا إسرائيل عن أبي إسحاق عن الأسود قال: قلت لعائشة: إن رجلًا من الطلقاء يبايع له -يعني معاوية، قالت: يا بني، لا تعجب هو ملك (اللَّه) (٢) يؤتيه من يشاء (٣).
It is narrated from al-Aswad that he said: I said to Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her): Allegiance is being pledged to a man from among those set free at the conquest of Makkah, meaning Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him). Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: Do not be astonished; this is the dominion of Allah Almighty, which He gives to whom He wills.
