7205. Narrated 'Abdullāh bin Dīnār: When the people gave the Bai'a (pledge) to 'Abdul-Mālik, 'Abdullāh bin 'Umar wrote to him: "To Allāh's slave, 'Abdul-Mālik, chief of the believers, I gave the Bai'a that I will listen to and obey, according to Allāh's Laws and Sunna (legal ways) of His Messenger in whatever is within my ability; and my sons, too, give the same pledge."

Arabic text

7205 - حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ دِينَارٍ، قَالَ: لَمَّا بَايَعَ النَّاسُ عَبْدَ المَلِكِ كَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ: إِلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَبْدِ المَلِكِ أَمِيرِ المُؤْمِنِينَ «إِنِّي أُقِرُّ بِالسَّمْعِ وَالطَّاعَةِ لِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَبْدِ المَلِكِ أَمِيرِ المُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَى سُنَّةِ اللَّهِ وَسُنَّةِ رَسُولِهِ، فِيمَا اسْتَطَعْتُ، وَإِنَّ بَنِيَّ قَدْ أَقَرُّوا بِذَلِكَ»
