Choosing Between Equal Authorities in Cases of Mandatory Precaution

Question

Is it permissible to refer to any of the grand jurists when they are equal in knowledge during mandatory precaution?

Answer 1

In the case of equal knowledge among the grand jurists, it is permissible to refer to any of them during mandatory precaution.

Here are some points to consider:

1- If the jurists are equal in knowledge, it is permissible to refer to any of them for precautionary measures, as there is no specific evidence that favors one over the other.

2- It is also permissible to choose any of the jurists if they are equally knowledgeable, as long as the choice does not lead to confusion or contradiction in the rulings.
