Hadith.5446 - Ribʿi narrated from Al-Fuḍayl ibn Yasar from Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) regarding a man who is appointed as an executor.

"If the will is sent to him from another town, he does not have the right to reject it. However, if he is in a city where others are available, then it is up to him to accept or decline it."
