If a judge divides a bankrupt's estate among known creditors, and another creditor emerges later, does the new creditor reclaim shares from the previously paid creditors?

Primary text

If the judge distributes the bankrupt's wealth among the creditors, and subsequently another creditor appears, that new creditor reclaims a proportional share from the distributed shares. This view is held by Al-Shafi'i, and narrated from Malik. The reasoning is that if the creditor had been present, they would have participated in the division. Their subsequent appearance necessitates participation, similar to a posthumous creditor of a deceased person sharing in the previously divided estate. The judge's division is not considered a final judgment but a partition in which error has become apparent, analogous to partitioning inherited land when another heir or a will subsequently appears.
