Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If a person sells some goods, and the buyer becomes insolvent and the seller finds his goods exactly as they were (with the buyer), then the seller has a greater right to those goods."

Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If a person is declared bankrupt and he has someone else's property in his possession, and he has not received any payment for that property, then he will recover it along with the other creditors. And if a person dies and he has someone else's property in his possession, whether he has received any payment for it or not, he will be considered like the other creditors in this matter."

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If a seller finds his goods with a person who has been declared insolvent, and the seller has not received any part of the price from that person, then the goods will be returned to the seller. But if the buyer has paid some part of the price for those goods, then for the remaining amount, the seller will be considered like the other creditors."

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates this statement of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): The hadith is as previously mentioned, however, in this version, these words are present: "Whoever passes away and has someone else's wealth in his possession, whether he has received any price for that wealth or not, he will be counted among the other creditors regarding this matter."

The son of Sayyiduna Ka'b bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates from his father that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prevented Sayyiduna Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) from disposing of his wealth because of the debt that was due upon him, and had that wealth sold.

Hisham bin Urwah narrates that Abdullah bin Ja'far came to Sayyiduna Zubair (may Allah be pleased with him) and said: I have bought such-and-such thing for such-and-such price, and now Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) wants to go to the Commander of the Faithful and prevent me from disposing of it. So Sayyiduna Zubair (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I will become a partner with you in this transaction. Then he went to Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him), and Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The son of Ja'far has bought such-and-such thing for such-and-such price, and I am about to prevent him from disposing of it. So Sayyiduna Zubair (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I am also a partner with him in this transaction. Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) said: How can I prevent anyone from disposing of a transaction in which Sayyiduna Zubair (may Allah be pleased with him) is a partner? The narrator of this narration, Ya'qub, i.e., Qadi Abu Yusuf, says: My position is that in such a case, the concerned person can be prevented from disposing of it; I believe that I would prevent such a person and declare his transaction void, as long as he has been prevented from disposing of it, whether he has bought or sold something. But if something has been bought or sold before the person was prevented from disposing of it, then if it is in a correct state, I will declare it valid, but if there is any such situation in it due to which he deserves to be prevented from disposing of it, then I will prevent the concerned person from disposing of it and declare his transaction void. But if it is something in which it is not necessary to prevent disposal, I will declare his transaction valid. Qadi Abu Yusuf says: Imam Abu Hanifa neither used to prevent disposal nor did he give a fatwa regarding preventing disposal.

Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) established the right of pre-emption (shuf‘ah) for every property that has not been divided.
