[Machine] "O uncle, what makes you cry? Is it pain or sadness over this worldly life?" He replied, "No, but the Messenger of Allah ﷺ made a covenant with me that I have not fulfilled. He said to me, 'O Abu Hashim, wealth will come to you from people.'" Adh-Dhahabi remained silent about it in the summary.

الحاكم:٦٦٩٢ – حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ حَمْدَانَ الْجَلَّابُ بِهَمْدَانَ ثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ الْمِصْرِيُّ بِمَكَّةَ حَرَسَهَا اللَّهُ تَعَالَى حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ الْفِرْيَابِيُّ ثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ قَالَ دَخَلَ مُعَاوِيَةُ عَلَى أَبِي هَاشِمِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ وَهُوَ يَبْكِي فَقَالَ

يَا خَالُ مَا يُبْكِيكَ؟ أَوَجَعٌ أَوْ حُزْنٌ عَلَى الدُّنْيَا؟ فَقَالَ كَلَّا وَلَكِنْ عَهِدَ إِلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَهْدًا لَمْ آخُذْ بِهِ قَالَ لِي «يَا أَبَا هَاشِمٍ إِنَّهَا سَتُدْرِكُكَ أَمْوَالٌ يُؤْتَاهَا أَقْوَامٌ» سكت عنه الذهبي في التلخيص

"Mu'awiyah came to Abu Hashim bin 'Uthbah to visit him when he was ill (and dying). He said: 'O Uncle! Why do you cry? Is it from the pangs of death or desire for this world?' He said: 'Neither of these. But the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had commissioned me with an obligation that I did not abide by. He ﷺ said: "It suffices you to gather the wealth of a servant or a rider in the cause of Allah." And (it is only) today I find that I have gathered it.'" (Using translation from Tirmidhī 2327)

يَا خَالُ مَا يُبْكِيكَ؟ أَوَجَعٌ يَشْمَئِزُّكَ؟ أَمْ حِرْصٌ عَلَى الدُّنْيَا؟ قَالَ كُلٌّ لَا وَلَكِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَهِدَ إِلَيَّ عَهْدًا لَمْ آخُذْ بِهِ فَقَالَ «يَا أَبَا هَاشِمٍ سَتَرَى أَمْوَالًا يُؤْتَاهَا أَقْوَامٌ وَإِنَّمَا يَكْفِيكَ مِنْ جَمِيعِ الدُّنْيَا خَادِمٌ وَمَرْكَبٌ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ» فَأَرَانِيَ الْيَوْمَ قَدْ جَمَعْتُ
