حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُمَيَّةَ عَمْرُو بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ جَدِّي، يُحَدِّثُ، أَنَّ مُعَاوِيَةَ، أَخَذَ الْإِدَاوَةَ بَعْدَ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ يَتْبَعُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِهَا، وَاشْتَكَى أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ، فَبَيْنَا هُوَ يُوَضِّئُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ إِلَيْهِ مَرَّةً أَوْ مَرَّتَيْنِ وَهُوَ يَتَوَضَّأ (٢) ، فَقَالَ: " يَا مُعَاوِيَةُ، إِنْ وُلِّيتَ أَمْرًا فَاتَّقِ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَاعْدِلْ "، قَالَ: فَمَازِلْتُ أَظُنُّ أَنِّي مُبْتَلًى بِعَمَلٍ، ، لِقَوْلِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَتَّى ابْتُلِيتُ (١)، ،
Translation
English translation
It is narrated that once Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) fell ill, so Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) took care of him and took a vessel and went after the Prophet (ﷺ). While he was helping the Prophet (ﷺ) perform ablution, the Prophet (ﷺ) looked up at him once or twice and said: "Muawiyah! If you are given authority, fear Allah and be just." He says that at that very moment I became certain that some responsibility would be entrusted to me, and so it happened.
