Question:
If a group goes on a journey and appoints a leader, does this fall under the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him):
Whoso obeys me obeys Godمَن أطاعني فقد أطاع الله
Sahih Muslim 1835c

Answer:
Yes, it does. The purpose of appointing him is obedience and compliance, so that their affairs are completed and they travel with peace of mind.
