What is the ruling on the forfeiture of preemption when the claimant denies the report, but the informer is someone whose testimony is legally binding (like two just men)?
General Chapter
Al-Mughni
Book of Preemption (Shuf'ah)
Primary text
If the claimant states he did not affirm the report, but the informer is a person whose testimony is legally binding, such as two just men, the right of preemption is voided because their statement constitutes proof that establishes rights.
