قَالَ مُصَنِّفُ هَذَا الْكِتَابِ رَحِمَهُ اللَّهُ لَسْتُ أُفْتِي بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ بَلْ أُفْتِي بِمَا عِنْدِي بِخَطِّ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ ع وَ لَوْ صَحَّ الْخَبَرَانِ جَمِيعاً لَكَانَ الْوَاجِبُ الْأَخْذَ بِقَوْلِ الْأَخِيرِ كَمَا أَمَرَ بِهِ الصَّادِقُ ع وَ ذَلِكَ أَنَّ الْأَخْبَارَ لَهَا وُجُوهٌ وَ مَعَانٍ وَ كُلُّ إِمَامٍ أَعْلَمُ بِزَمَانِهِ وَ أَحْكَامِهِ مِنْ غَيْرِهِ مِنَ النَّاسِ وَ بِاللَّهِ التَّوْفِيقُ.
The author of this book (may Allah سبحانه وتعالى have mercy on him) stated: "I do not issue a legal verdict (fatwa) based on this narration. Rather, I issue a fatwa according to what I possess in the handwriting of Imam Hasan ibn Ali عليه السلام. And if both reports were authentic, it would be obligatory to follow the statement of the latter, as ordered by Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام. This is because narrations have various aspects and meanings, and every Imam عليه السلام is more knowledgeable about his time and its rulings than anyone else. And with Allah سبحانه وتعالى is success."
