Arabic text

1- عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ رِبْعِيٍّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ إِنْ أَوْصَى رَجُلٌ إِلَى رَجُلٍ وَهُوَ غَائِبٌ فَلَيْسَ لَهُ أَنْ يَرُدَّ وَصِيَّتَهُ فَإِنْ أَوْصَى إِلَيْهِ وَهُوَ بِالْبَلَدِ فَهُوَ بِالْخِيَارِ إِنْ شَاءَ قَبِلَ وَإِنْ شَاءَ لَمْ يَقْبَلْ.

Translation

1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Hammad ibn ‘Isa from Rib‘iy from Muhammad ibn Muslim who has narrated the following: “If one makes a will and appoints a certain person as the executor of the will who is not present in town he cannot refuse to accept the appointment, but if he is town he has the choice to accept or refuse it.’”
