وَ قَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: "بَاشِرْ كِبَارَ أُمُورِكَ بِنَفْسِكَ وَ كِلْ مَا صَغُرَ مِنْهَا إِلَى غَيْرِكَ " فَقِيلَ ضَرْبُ أَيِّ شَيْءٍ فَقَالَ "ضَرْبُ أَشْرِيَةِ اَلْعَقَارِ وَ مَا أَشْبَهَهَا".
Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام said: "Handle your major affairs personally, and delegate the smaller ones to others." It was asked: "What kind of tasks are you referring to?" Imam عليه السلام replied: "Matters like buying and selling properties and similar transactions."
