Hadith.5461 - Hammad ibn ʿIsa narrated from Hariz from Muhammad ibn Muslim from Abu Abdullah (as) regarding a man who made a will in the presence of his heirs, and they approved it. However, after the man's death, they attempted to revoke the will. Imam (as) said
"They do not have the right to revoke it. The will remains binding upon them once they had approved it during his lifetime."
5461 - رَوَى حَمَّادُ بْنُ عِيسَى عَنْ حَرِيزٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ
فِي رَجُلٍ أَوْصَى بِوَصِيَّةٍ وَ وَرَثَتُهُ شُهُودٌ فَأَجَازُوا ذَلِكَ فَلَمَّا مَاتَ اَلرَّجُلُ نَقَضُوا اَلْوَصِيَّةَ هَلْ لَهُمْ أَنْ يَرُدُّوا مَا أَقَرُّوا بِهِ فَقَالَ "لَيْسَ لَهُمْ ذَلِكَ وَ اَلْوَصِيَّةُ جَائِزَةٌ عَلَيْهِمْ إِذَا أَقَرُّوا بِهَا فِي حَيَاتِهِ".
