Al Hasan and several Companions said that when it came to decision making, the Companions were forbidden to carry out any matter before the Prophet had spoken and given his instruction regardless whether it was to fight or something else in their Religion unless the Prophet had ordered it.
Al Hasan at ilang mga kasamahan sinabi na kapag ito ay dumating sa paggawa ng desisyon, ang mga kasama ay ipinagbabawal upang isakatuparan ang anumang bagay bago ang Propetang si pasalitang at bibigyankanyang pagtuturo man ito ay upang labanan o ibang bagay sa kanilang Relihiyon maliban kung ang Propetang si order na ito.
