It is narrated from Sayyiduna Sa'd (may Allah be pleased with him) that he was with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). He (peace and blessings be upon him) passed by the mosque of Banu Mu'awiyah, entered it and prayed two rak'ahs in it, then stood and conversed intimately with his Lord, then turned back and said: "I asked my Lord for three things; He granted me two and withheld one from me. I asked Him not to destroy my nation by drowning, nor to destroy it by famine (that is, hunger), and He granted me both of these. And I asked Him that there be no fighting among them, and He withheld that from me."
