حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ عَنْ أَبِي الْخَيْرِ قَالَ عَرَضَ مَسْلَمَةُ بْنُ مُخَلَّدٍ وَكَانَ أَمِيرًا عَلَى مِصْرَ عَلَى رُوَيْفِعِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ أَنْ يُوَلِّيَهُ الْعُشُورَ فَقَالَ إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ إِنَّ صَاحِبَ الْمَكْسِ فِي النَّارِ.

Qutaybah ibn Sa'id told us, saying: Ibn Lahi'ah told us, from Yazid ibn Abi Habib, from Abu al-Khayr, who said: Maslamah ibn Mukhallad — who was governor of Egypt — offered Ruwayfi' ibn Thabit to place him in charge of the tolls (taxes), and he said: "I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say: 'The tax-collector is in the Fire.'"
