According to this will...

According to this will, he can act just like me myself regarding my property, my family and my children. If he pleases, he can keep his brothers as Trustees - whom I named in the beginning of this document. If he likes, he can also keep them from being Trustees. No one is allowed to object to his decision. If anyone of them wants to marry off his sister, he is not authorized to do so without his permission and order.

Whatever power tries to take away the authorities which I have written down for him has deviated from God the Almighty and His Messenger (a.s.). God and His Messenger will also have nothing to do with them. God’s Curse, all those who curse, the curse of the nearby-stationed angels, the curse of the Prophets and the curse of (all) the Messengers and the believers be on such a person.

None of the kings nor any of my children are allowed to take away his authority over the property I have entrusted him with. Whatever he says about its amount is acceptable to me - whether it be a small amount or large sum. The reason I mentioned the names of my other children here is that I wanted their names and the names of my other small children to be respectfully mentioned here.

Those of my slave-wives who are Umm Walad [^6] and do not leave will have the same rights and privileges that they had had during my life-time, if Ali Al-Ridha’ (a.s.) pleases. But if they should get married, they can no longer return and receive payments unless Ali Al-Ridha’ (a.s.) deems it proper to do so. The same holds true for my daughters. The marriage of none of my daughters is entrusted to their maternal brothers (uncles) or the King.

My daughters should not do anything unless they seek Ali Al-Ridha’’s (a.s.) counsel and opinion (advice). If my daughters’ maternal brothers take any steps regarding the marriage of my daughters[^7] they have disobeyed God the Almighty and His Prophet - may God's Blessings be upon him and his Household, and have interfered in his authority.
