Zuhayr ibn Harb narrated to me: Ya'qub ibn Ibrahim narrated to us: the nephew of Ibn Shihab narrated to us, from his uncle, who said: 'Amir ibn Sa'd ibn Abi Waqqas informed me, from his father Sa'd, that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) gave [gifts] to a group of people while Sa'd was sitting among them. Sa'd said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) left out one of them whom he did not give, and he was the most beloved to me of them. So I said: O Messenger of Allah, why did you [not give] to so-and-so? By Allah, I truly consider him a believer. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Or a Muslim." Sa'd said: So I remained silent for a while, then what I knew of him overcame me, and I said: O Messenger of Allah, why did you [not give] to so-and-so? By Allah, I truly consider him a believer. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Or a Muslim." Sa'd said: So I remained silent for a while, then what I knew of him overcame me, and I said: O Messenger of Allah, why did you [not give] to so-and-so? By Allah, I truly consider him a believer. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Or a Muslim. Indeed, I give [wealth] to a man while another is more beloved to me than him, for fear that he might be cast face-first into the Fire."
