Bayhaqi 16564 — The manner of the pledge of allegiance

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أَنْبَأَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سَلْمَانَ النَّجَّادُ، ثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ، ثَنَا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ، ⦗٢٥٤⦘ كَتَبَ إِلَى عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ مَرْوَانَ يُبَايِعُهُ، فَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ: بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ، أَمَّا بَعْدُ، لِعَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ مِنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، سَلَّامٌ عَلَيْكَ، فَإِنِّي أَحْمَدُ إِلَيْكَ اللهَ الَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَ، وَأُقِرُّ لَكَ بِالسَّمْعِ وَالطَّاعَةِ عَلَى سُنَّةِ اللهِ وَسُنَّةِ رَسُولِهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِيمَا اسْتَطَعْتُ. رَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ فِي الصَّحِيحِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي أُوَيْسٍ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ.
Abdullah bin Dinar (may Allah have mercy on him) said that Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) wrote to Abd al-Malik bin Marwan, who was asking him for his pledge of allegiance: "Bismillah al-Rahman al-Rahim (In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful). Amma ba'd (to proceed): To Abd al-Malik, the Commander of the Believers, from Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both). Salamun alayka (Peace be upon you). I praise Allah, besides whom there is no god, and I affirm (my commitment) to hear and obey, according to the Sunnah of Allah and the Sunnah of His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), as far as I am able."
