Narrated Zaid Bin Wahab: I passed by a place called AlRabadha and by chance I met Abu Dhar and asked him; What has brought you to this place? He said; I was in Sham and differed with Muawiya on the meaning of the following verses of the Quran : They who hoard up gold and silver and spend them not in the way of Allah. 9.34. Muawiya said; This verse is revealed regarding the people of the scriptures. I said; It was revealed regarding us and also the people of the scriptures. So we had a quarrel and Muawiya sent a complaint against me to Uthman. Uthman wrote to me to come to Medina; and I came to Medina. Many people came to me as if they had not seen me before. So I told this to Uthman who said to me; You may depart and live nearby if you wish. That was the reason for my being here for even if an Ethiopian had been nominated as my ruler; I would have obeyed him.
