Musnad Ahmad 1522
sahih· Darussalam

It was narrated from ‘Amir bin Sa"d bin Abi Waqqas that his father said:

The Prophet (ﷺ) gave to some men and he did not give anything to one man among them. Sa’d said: “O Prophet (ﷺ) of Allah, you gave to so and so, and so and so, but you did not give so and so anything, and he is a believer.” The Prophet (ﷺ) said: “or a Muslim," until Sa"d repeated it three times, and the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “or a Muslim.” Then the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “I give to some men and leave someone who is dearer to me than them, so I do not give him anything, for fear that they may be thrown on their faces in Hell."
