Instructions to two of his commanders

Pearl of Wisdom

?O Allah! You know that what we did was neither to compete for power nor to acquire anything from the vanities of the world. Rather we only wanted to restore the original characteristics of Your religion and to usher prosperity into Your lands, so that the oppressed from among Your servants may be safe and that Your abolished commands may be reestablished.'

Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib [as]

Ibid. Sermon 131

Instructions to two of his commanders

Letter 13 Instructions to two of his commanders

I have appointed Malik bin Harith as chief of the staff over you and the armies under you. Take your orders from him and obey him. Treat him as if he is your shield and armour because there is no risk of laziness or lethargy from him, nor of nervousness and blunders nor of any error of commission and omission.
