Majma’ bin Yahya says that once I was beside Abu Umamah bin Sahl, who was in front of the muezzin. The muezzin said «اللہ اكࣿبر» twice, so Abu Umamah also said «الله اكࣿبر» twice. The muezzin said «ا شهد انࣿ لا اله الا اللہ» twice, so he also said it twice. The muezzin said «اشهد ان محمدا رسول اللہ» twice, so he also said it. Then he turned to me and said that Sayyiduna Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated to me in the same way from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).

Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that Sayyiduna Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) cut the hair of the Prophet’s head with the scissors he had with him.

Abu Shaykh Hanai says that (I was once sitting in a gathering of some of the noble companions with Sayyiduna Amir Muawiyah, may Allah be pleased with him). Sayyiduna Muawiyah, may Allah be pleased with him, asked them: "Do you know that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, forbade riding on leopard skin?" They replied: "Yes!" Then he asked: "Do you know that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, forbade men from wearing gold, except if it is very little?" They replied: "Yes!" Then he asked: "Do you know that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, forbade drinking water from gold and silver vessels?" They said: "Yes!" Then he asked: "Do you know that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, forbade combining Hajj and Umrah in one journey?" They replied: "We do not know about this."

Humaid bin Abdur Rahman says that he heard Sayyiduna Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) giving a sermon on the pulpit while holding a bunch of hair in his hands, saying: "O people of Madinah! Where are your scholars? I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) forbidding such things, and he said that punishment came upon the Children of Israel only when their women made this their occupation."

Umar bin Ata says that once Nafi’ bin Jubair sent me to Sa’ib bin Yazid to ask whether he had seen Sayyiduna Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) offering prayer. He replied, "Yes! Once I offered Jumu’ah with him in the 'Maqsurah.' When he finished the prayer with salam, I stood at my place and began to offer the Sunnah prayers. Sayyiduna Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) went inside, then called me and said: 'Do not do as you just did again after today. When you offer the Jumu’ah prayer, do not offer another prayer immediately after it until you have spoken or moved from your place, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded that no prayer should be offered immediately after another until one has spoken or moved from that place.'"

Humaid says that he once heard Sayyiduna Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) in Madinah Munawwarah during a sermon saying: "O people of Madinah, where have your scholars gone? I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say: 'This is the day of Ashura, fasting on it is not obligatory upon us, so whoever among you wishes to fast may do so, and I am fasting.' Upon this, the people also fasted."

The previous hadith is also narrated through this second chain of transmission.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) that I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "Whoever drinks alcohol, flog him. If he drinks again, flog him again. Even if he drinks a fourth time, then kill him."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) that I cut the hair of the Prophet’s (peace and blessings be upon him) head at Marwah with the scissors that I had with me.

Yazid bin Jariyah (may Allah have mercy on him) says that once he was sitting with some Ansari people when Sayyiduna Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) arrived and asked about the topic of discussion. The people informed him that they were talking about the Ansar. Sayyiduna Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "Shall I not narrate to you a hadith to increase your knowledge, which I heard from the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)?" The people said, "Why not, O Commander of the Faithful!" He said, "I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: Whoever loves the Ansar, Allah loves him, and whoever harbors enmity towards the Ansar, Allah harbors enmity towards him."
