Hazrat Ameer Muawiya r.a and the Romans

Re: Hazrat Ameer Muawiya r.a and the Romans

The Qadi would not come **to the khalif and stayed in his house, saying "One comes to the arbiter." So Mu'awiya and 'Abdu'r-Rahman went to him and he gave them a cushion and said, "Sit down on it*."
'Abdu'r-Rahman made his previous statement and Mu'awiya made his previous statement. **Fadala
* thought that the statement of 'Abdu'r-Rahman's was right and gave judgement in his favour.

Mu'awiya said, "We accept what you have said. What is your opinion about what we have *planted **in it?" He said, "That was undertaken by you. If 'Abdu'r-Rahman wishes, he can pay the **price **of your planting, and if he wishes, he can make you responsible for them in exchange for the price of the land." 'Abdu'r-Rahman said, *"You have been fair!" **
