Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 37548 — The words of Abu Musa
٣٧٥٤٨ - حدثنا معاذ عن ابن عون عن محمد قال: كتب أبو موسى إلى عامر من عبد اللَّه بن قيس (إلى عامر بن عبد اللَّه الذي وإن يدعى عامر بن عبد قيس) (١): أما بعد: فإني عهدتك على أمر وبلغني أنك تغيرت، فإن كنت على ما عهدت فاتق (اللَّه) (٢) ودم، وإن كنت تغيرت فاتق اللَّه ومحمد (٣).
It is narrated from Muhammad (Ibn Sirin) that he said: Sayyiduna Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) wrote a letter to Amir: From Abdullah bin Qays to Amir bin Abdullah, who was formerly called Amir bin Abd Qays. To proceed: I knew you to be upon a certain state, and it has reached me that you have changed. So if you are upon the state in which I knew you, then fear Allah and persevere. And if you have changed, then fear Allah and return.
