Agency in Endowments

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The agent of an endowment, whether for a sacrificial animal or otherwise, wishes to appoint an agent on his behalf. Who is preferable: the children or the brothers? And if the delegation of agency was not explicitly stated, what should be done?

Answer:
If the testator did not explicitly grant the agent the right to delegate agency, then the agency belongs to the judge, and the agent has the right to recommend a qualified person, whether a brother or a son.
