Hadith 243
۞
Hadith.3385 - It is narrated from Muhammad ibn Abi Umayr, from Hisham ibn Salim, from Abu Abdullah (as):
Regarding a man who appointed another as his agent (wakil) for a matter and had two witnesses testify to the appointment, the agent then proceeded to act upon the matter. Meanwhile, the principal declared, "Witness that I have dismissed so-and-so from the agency."
Imam (as) said
"If the agent had executed the matter before being dismissed from the agency, then the action remains valid and binding, whether the principal is pleased with it or not."
I asked: "What if the agent completed the action before learning of the dismissal or being informed that he had been removed from the agency?"
Imam (as) replied: "Yes, the action stands as valid."
I then asked: "What if the agent received notice of dismissal before carrying out the matter, but proceeded with it anyway?"
Imam (as) said: "Then the action is invalid."
Imam (as) added: "An agent, once appointed, retains authority as long as he is not informed of the dismissal by a trustworthy source or directly notified in person of the termination of the agency."
