Chapter on Judgment by Lot
Man Lā Yaḥḍuruh al-Faqīh|Volume 3|Book 1|Chapter 37
وَ قَالَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: "أَيُّ قَضِيَّةٍ أَعْدَلُ مِنَ اَلْقُرْعَةِ إِذَا فُوِّضَ اَلْأَمْرُ إِلَى اَللَّهِ أَ لَيْسَ اَللَّهُ تَعَالَى يَقُولُ: فَسٰاهَمَ فَكٰانَ مِنَ اَلْمُدْحَضِينَ ".
Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام said: "What judgment is more just than the casting of lots (Qur'ah) when the matter is entrusted to Allah سبحانه وتعالى? Does not Allah سبحانه وتعالى, the Exalted, say: 'So they cast lots, and he was among the losers'?" (Surah As-Saffat 37:141)
