Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 20685 — What is mentioned on the virtue
٢٠٦٨٥ - حدثنا عبد الرحيم بن سليمان عن زكريا عن أبي بكر بن عمرو بن عتبة (١) قال: خرج على الناس بعث في (زمن) (٢) معاوية (فكتب) (٣) معاوية إلى جرير بن عبد اللَّه: إنا قد وضعنا عنك البعث وعن ولدك، (قال) (٤): فكتب إليه جرير: إني بايعت رسول اللَّه ﷺ على (النصح) (٥) والطاعة والنصح للمسلمين فإن (ننشط) (٦) ⦗١١٩⦘ نخرج فيه وإلا (قوينا) (٧) من يخرج (٨).
Abu Bakr bin Amr bin Utbah said: In the time of Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him), a levy of troops was once imposed on the people for jihad. Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) wrote in a letter to Sayyiduna Jarir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him): "We have exempted you and your son from the levy." Sayyiduna Jarir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) wrote in reply: "I pledged allegiance at the blessed hand of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) to sincere counsel, obedience, and goodwill towards the Muslims. If we feel eager, we will go out in it; otherwise we will strengthen those who go."
