Abu Hashim Ibn Utbah:
“I went to Abű Hashim ibn ‘Utbah and he had a knife wound. So Mua’wiyah came to visit
him, and Abű Hashim was crying. So Mua’wiyah asked: “What is it that makes you cry, O Uncle?! Is it the pain
or is it for the world (that you are crying)?” He replied, “Neither, but the
Messenger of
Allâh entrusted me with a trust and I wish that I had carried it out.” He said, “Verily
you may attain some of the wealth which will be divided between the
people. Indeed,
sufficient for you is: a servant and a riding animal for the sake of Allâh.” So I did
attain this wealth and accumulated it (ie he acquired more than what
the Prophet
(saw) advised him to suffice himself with).” (Ahmad, at-Tirmidhî,
an-Nasâ’î, Ibn Mâjah)
