Musnad of Amr bin Murrah
Musnad Abi Ya'la 1566 — he said to Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah: I heard
حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو حَسَنٍ ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ ، قَالَ : قُلْتُ لِمُعَاوِيَةَ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يَقُولُ : مَا مِنْ أَمِيرٍ وَلَا وَالٍ يُغْلِقُ بَابَهُ دُونَ ذَوِي الْحَاجَةِ وَالْخَلَّةِ وَالْمَسْكَنَةِ ، إِلَّا أَغْلَقَ اللهُ أَبْوَابَ السَّمَاءِ دُونَ حَاجَتِهِ وَمَسْكَنَتِهِ ، قَالَ : فَجَعَلَ مُعَاوِيَةُ رَجُلًا عَلَى حَوَائِجِ النَّاسِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Amr bin Murrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said to Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him): I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: "There is no commander or ruler who shuts his door on the one in need, the one in want and the poor, except that Allah Almighty also shuts the gates of heaven at the time of his need and poverty." (On hearing this) Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) appointed a man permanently to look after the needs of the people.
