letter8 - To Jarir Ibn `Abdillah Al-bajali When Imam Ali Ibn Aba Talib, Peace be Upon Him Sent Him to Mu`awiyah (And There Was a Delay in His Return)

When you receive this letter of mine, you must ask Mu`awiyah to take a final decision and to follow a determined course. Then ask him to choose either war that exiles him from home or a dishonorable peace. If he chooses war, leave him alone, but if he chooses peace, secure an oath of allegiance from him, and that is an end to the matter.
