4683. It was narrated from Muḥammad bin Thawr, from Ma'mar, he said: "Az-Zuhri informed me, from 'Āmir bin Sa'd bin Abi Waqqāṣ, from his father, who said: 'The Prophet ﷺ gave something to some men, and he did not give anything to one of them.' Sa'd said: 'O Messenger of Allāh, you gave to so-and-so and so-and-so, and you did not give anything to so-and-so, and he is a believer.' The Prophet ﷺ said: 'Or
a Muslim," until Sa'd had repeated it three times, and the Prophet ﷺ said: "Or a Muslim." Then the Prophet ﷺ said: "I may give to some men and not to one who is dearer to me than them, lest they be thrown into the Fire on their faces." (Sahih)
