“The amir of the people is Zayd ibn Haritha; if he was killed then the amir is Ja’far ibn Abi Talib; and if he was killed the amir is Abdullah ibn Ruwahah; and if he was killed let the Muslims choose one man from among them and make him their amir.”.

Ele é digno de liderança…’” [Bukhari, Sahih, #4250 e Muslim, Sahih, #2436]. Os Sahabah costumavam chamar o exército de Mu’tah de exército dos amires. Muslim narrou de Ibn Buraydah, que disse: “O Mensageiro de Allah ﷺ costumava aconselhá-lo quando nomeava um amir sobre um exército ou uma expedição…”.

“The Prophet (PBUH) sent an army and appointed Usama ibn Zayd as an amir over them.

He is worthy of leadership…’” [Bukhari, Sahih, #4250 and Muslim, Sahih, #2436]. The Sahabah used to call the army of Mu’tah the army of amirs.
