Sunan Abi Dawud 3056
حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مَرْوَانُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ، بِمَعْنَى إِسْنَادِ أَبِي تَوْبَةَ وَحَدِيثِهِ قَالَ عِنْدَ قَوْلِهِ ‏ ‏ ‏.‏ فَسَكَتَ عَنِّي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَاغْتَمَزْتُهَا ‏.‏
"‏ مَا يَقْضِي عَنِّي ‏"
The tradition mentioned above has also been transmitted by Mu’awiyah through a different chain of narrators to the same effect as narrated by Abu Taubah. This version has “I have nothing to pay from me. The Apostle of Allaah(ﷺ) thereupon kept silence and this displeased me.”
