[Machine] On the authority of his cousin from among the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ , who came to Muawiyah and entered upon him, and said: I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, "Whoever is appointed to take charge of people and then closes his door without fulfilling the needs of the poor, the oppressed, or those in need, Allah will close His doors of mercy upon him when he is in need and poverty. He will be the poorest of all people."
عَنِ ابْنِ عَمٍّ لَهُ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ أَتَى مُعَاوِيَةَ فَدَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ وَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ مَنْ وَلِيَ أَمْرَ النَّاسِ ثُمَّ أَغْلَقَ بَابَهُ دُونَ الْمِسْكِينِ أَوِ الْمَظْلُومِ أَوْ ذِي الْحَاجَةِ أَغْلَقَ اللهُ ﷻ دُونَهُ أَبْوَابَ رَحْمَتِهِ عِنْدَ حَاجَتِهِ وَفَقْرِهِ أَفْقَرَ مَا يَكُونُ إِلَيْهَا
