كَتَبَ مُعَاوِيَةُ إِلَى الْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ شُعْبَةَ أَنِ اكْتُبْ، إِلَىَّ بِشَىْءٍ سَمِعْتَهُ مِنَ النَّبِيِّ، صلى الله عليه وسلم. فَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ كَرِهَ لَكُمْ ثَلاَثًا قِيلَ وَقَالَ، وَإِضَاعَةَ الْمَالِ، وَكَثْرَةَ السُّؤَالِ .
The clerk of Al-Mughira bin Shu`ba narrated, "Muawiya wrote to Al-Mughira bin Shu`ba: Write tome something which you have heard from the Prophet (p.b.u.h) ." So Al-Mughira wrote: I heard theProphet saying, "Allah has hated for you three things:-1. Vain talks, (useless talk) that you talk too much or about others.-2. Wasting of wealth (by extravagance)-3. And asking too many questions (in disputed religious matters) or asking others for something(except in great need).
