Consulting
the Ameer
Question:
What are those matters about which the Ameer should be asked
and consulted?
Response:
He should be consulted about those matters which I mentioned
while discussing the benefits of appointing an Ameer, especially
those matters affecting the group as a whole. No-one, therefore,
should proceed to do something by himself, in a matter related
to the whole group, before he has consulted the Ameer or President,
because acting alone in such a matter is an act of oppression
and violence against the Ameer and causes differences of opinion
and disputation.
