Mu'abad Juhani says that Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) would very rarely narrate any hadith from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), but he would often mention these words from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in many gatherings: "When Allah intends good for someone, He grants him understanding of the religion. And the wealth of this world is very sweet and lush; so whoever takes it rightfully, there is blessing in it for him. And beware of praising someone to his face, for that is like slaughtering him."

We informed him. He would rarely attribute anything to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).
