Chapter 50 | To the officers of his army

أَلَا وَإِنَّ لَكُمْ عِنْدِي أَلَّا أَحْتَجِزَ دُونَكُمْ سِرّاً إِلَّا فِي حَرْبٍ، وَلَا أَطْوِيَ دُونَكُمْ أَمْراً إِلَّا فِي حُكْمٍ، وَلَا أُؤَخِّرَ لَكُمْ حَقّاً عَنْ مَحَلِّهِ، وَلَا أَقِفَ بِهِ دُونَ مَقْطَعِهِ، وَأَنْ تُكُونُوا عِندِي فِي الْحَقِّ سَوَاءً،

Beware, that it is obligatory for you on me that I should not keep anything secret from you except during war, nor should I decide any matter without consulting you except the commands of religion, nor should I ignore the fulfillment of any of your rights nor desist till I discharge it fully, and that for me all of you should be equal in rights.
