28-10 Ali ibn Ahmad ibn Abdullah ibn Ahmad ibn Abi Abdullah al-Barqi, Muhammad ibn Musa al-Barqi, Muhammad ibn Ali Majiluwayh, Muhammad ibn Ali ibn Hashem and Ali ibn Isa al-Mojawir - may God be pleased with them - narrated that Ali ibn Muhammad Majiluwayh quoted on the authority of Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Khalid, on the authority of Ahmad ibn Muhammad al-Sayyari, on the authority of Ali ibn Asbat, “I told Al-Ridha (s), ‘There are times when I must know the decree on an issue which arises, but I am in another town where none of your followers are present from whom to ask.’ The Imam (s) said, ‘Go to that town’s jurisprudent and present your question. Act against whatever he decrees since that is the right thing to do.’”
