letter42 - To `Umar Ibn Aba Salamah Al-Makhzami (Foster-Son of the Holy Prophet, Peace be Upon Him from Umm Al-Mu’minin, Umm Salamah) Who Was Imam Ali Ibn Aba Talib’s Governor of Bahrain, but Whom He Removed and Replaced with An-nu’man Ibn Ajlan az-Zuraq


I have posted an-Nu’man ibn `Ajlan az-Zuraqi in Bahrain and have released you from that position without anything bad from you nor reproach on you because you managed to govern well and carried out your obligations. Therefore, proceed to me when you are neither suspected nor rebuked, neither blamed nor guilty. I have just intended to proceed towards the rebel of Syria [Mu`awiyah]. I wish that you should be with me because you are among those on whom I can rely in fighting the enemy and in erecting the pillars of religion, if Allah so wills.
