وَقَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ بَهْدَلَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ قَالَ:

كَتَبَ خَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ ؓ إِلَى مِهْرَانَ وَرُسْتُمَ وَبِلَادِ فَارِسَ: مِنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ الْوَلِيدِ إِلَى مِهْرَانَ وَرُسْتُمَ: سَلَامٌ عَلَى مَنِ اتَّبَعَ الْهُدَى، أَمَّا بَعْدُ: فَإِنِّي أَعْرِضُ عَلَيْكُمَا الْإِسْلَامَ، فَإِنْ أَقْرَرْتُمَا بِالْإِسْلَامِ فَلَكُمَا مَا لِلْإِسْلَامِ، وَعَلَيْكُمَا مَا عَلَى الْإِسْلَامِ، وَإِنْ أَبَيْتُمَا فَإِنِّي أَعْرِضُ عَلَيْكُمَا الْجِزْيَةَ، فَإِنْ أَبَيْتُمَا فَإِنَّ عِنْدِي رِجَالًا يُحِبُّونَ الْقِتَالَ كَمَا تُحِبُّ فَارِسُ الْخَمْرَ

✧ Khalid ibn al-Walid ؓ wrote to Mihran and Rustam and the lands of Persia: From Khalid ibn al-Walid to Mihran and Rustam: Peace be upon those who follow guidance. To proceed: I offer you Islam. If you accept Islam, you will have what Muslims have and owe what Muslims owe. If you refuse, I offer you the jizyah. If you refuse, then I have men who love fighting as the Persians love wine.
