٣٧٠٢٨ - حدثنا أبو معاوية عن الأعمش عن (شقيق) (١) قال: دخل معاوية على خاله أبي هاشم بن عتبة يعوده فبكى فقال له معاوية: ما يبكيك يا خالي، أوجع (يشئزك) (٢) (أم) (٣) حرص على الدنيا؟ فقال: كلٌ لا، ولكن النبي ﷺ عهد إلينا (قال) (٤): "يا أبا هاشم، إنها لعلها تدرككم (أموال) (٥) (تؤتاها) (٦) أقوام، ⦗٢٥٢⦘ فإنما يكفيك من جمع المال: خادم ومركب في سبيل اللَّه"، فأراني قد جمعت (٧).
Hazrat Shaqiq says: Hazrat Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) went to visit his maternal uncle, Abu Hashim bin Utbah, when he was ill. His uncle began to weep. Hazrat Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) asked: O my uncle, why are you weeping? Has the pain of the illness distressed you, or is it attachment to the world? He replied: It is neither of these things, but rather (I am distressed because) the Noble Prophet (peace be upon him) advised us, saying: O Abu Hashim! You will surely receive wealth and riches just as other (conquering) nations receive, but for you, only one servant and one mount in the way of Allah (for jihad) will suffice. But I see that I have accumulated (much) more wealth than that.
