Abu Sa'id said that Mu'awiya went out to a circle in the mosque and asked them what had made them sit together. When they replied that they had sat down to remember Allah, he said, "I adjure you by Allah, has nothing else made you sit together?" On their reply that there was certainly no other cause he said, "I did not adjure you because I suspected you. No one in my position with relation to Allah's Messenger ﷺ has fewer traditions from him than I have; but Allah's Messenger ﷺ went out to a circle of his companions and asked them what had made them sit there, and when they replied that they had sat together to remember Allah and praise Him for guiding them to Islam and bestowing favour on them he said, ‘I adjure you by Allah, has nothing else made you sit together?’ On their replying that there was certainly no other cause he said, ‘I did not adjure you because’ I suspected you, but Gabriel came to me and told me Allah is speaking proudly of you to the angels’." Muslim transmitted it.
