Ibn Qudaama al-Maqdasee said in ”Lum´atul ’Itiqaad”

”Mu´aawiyah is the maternal uncle of the believers and the scribe of Allah´s revelation and one of the Muslim Khaleefahs – May Allaah be pleased with them”



The commentator of Tahaawiyyah (Ibn Abil-’Izz Ibn Abdis-Salaam)

said, ”The first of the Muslim kings was Mu´aawiyah and he was the best of the Muslim kings.”


Imaam Ad-Dhahabee says in ´Siyar ’Alam an-Nubalaa´:

”(Mu´aawiyah is) the leader of the believers and king of Islaam.”


Al-Bayhaqee narrated from Imaam Ahmad that he said:

”The Khaleefahs are Abu Bakr, ´Umar, ´Uthmaan and ´Alee.” It was said to him, ”What about Mu´aawiyah?” He said ”There was no one in the time of ´Alee more deserving of being the Khaleefah than ´Alee and may Allaah have mercy on Mu´aawiyah.”
