كَتَبَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ إِلَى أَبِي مُحَمَّدٍ ( عليه السلام ) رَجُلٌ مَاتَ وَ أَوْصَى إِلَى رَجُلَيْنِ أَ يَجُوزُ لِأَحَدِهِمَا أَنْ يَنْفَرِدَ بِنِصْفِ التَّرِكَةِ وَ الْآخَرِ بِالنِّصْفِ فَوَقَّعَ ( عليه السلام ) لَا يَنْبَغِي لَهُمَا أَنْ يُخَالِفَا الْمَيِّتَ وَ أَنْ يَعْمَلَا عَلَى حَسَبِ مَا أَمَرَهُمَا إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya said, ‘Muhammad Bin Al-Hassan wrote to Abu Muhammad<sup>asws</sup>, ‘A man died and bequeathed to two men (to be executors), is it allowed for one of them that he deals separately with half the legacy, and the other with the (other) half?’ So he<sup>asws</sup> signed: ‘It is not befitting for both of them that they oppose the deceased, and that they should both act upon the accounting whatever he had ordered both of them, Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Willing’.
