4660. Narrated Zaid bin Wahb: I passed by (i.e., visited) Abū Dhar at Ar-Rabadha and said to him, "What has brought you to this land?" He said, "We were at Sham and I recited the Verse: 'They who hoard up gold and silver (Al-Kanz—the money, the Zakāt of which has not been paid) and spend it not in the Way of Allāh—announce to them a painful torment.' (V.9:34) whereupon Mu'awiya said, 'This Verse is not for us, but for the people of the Scripture.' Then I said, 'But it is both for us (Muslim) and for them.'"

4660 - حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ حُصَيْنٍ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ وَهْبٍ، قَالَ: مَرَرْتُ عَلَى أَبِي ذَرٍّ بِالرَّبَذَةِ فَقُلْتُ: مَا أَنْزَلَكَ بِهَذِهِ الأَرْضِ؟ قَالَ: " كُنَّا بِالشَّأْمِ فَقَرَأْتُ: {وَالَّذِينَ يَكْنِزُونَ الذَّهَبَ وَالفِضَّةَ، وَلاَ يُنْفِقُونَهَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ، فَبَشِّرْهُمْ بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ} [التوبة: 34] " قَالَ مُعَاوِيَةُ: مَا هَذِهِ فِينَا، مَا هَذِهِ إِلَّا فِي أَهْلِ الكِتَابِ، قَالَ: قُلْتُ: «إِنَّهَا لَفِينَا وَفِيهِمْ»
