Silsilat al-Ahadith al-Sahihah

Sayyiduna Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) said on the pulpit: "O Allah! There is none who can withhold what You give, and there is none who can give what You withhold, and the status of any person of high rank cannot benefit him against You. Allah, for whomever He intends good, grants him deep understanding of the religion." Sayyiduna Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I heard these words from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) on this pulpit.
