Passing system properties to hadoop jar command

Hi,

Is there a way to pass system properties to hadoop jar command?
My example is not working. |System.getProperty("file.path")| gives me 
|null|:

|$ hadoop jar medusa-java.jar mywordcount 
-Dfile.path=/home/xubuntu/Programs/medusa-2.0/temp/1442932326/job.attributes 
/input1 /output1 |
