And afterwards. The said lease is null and void and cannot be acted upon owing
kO the absence of the legal formula and the non-specification of the period which
is a necessary condition of the lease j and it is for the owner of the property, accord
ing to the Shera Law, to turn out the lessee from his property immediately. 4nd
God knows the right better.
Written by the humblest of the members of the Clergy, Abdullah bin Muham
mad Saeed-el-Ansari, of Kelat.
{viii). The answer. A lease has several conditions, and if a single condi
tion (thereof) is violated, the lease becomes invalid, and how it would be now that
several conditions have been omitted therefrom. Firstly, it becomes binding by
a known period. This has been omitted however. Secondly, a lease becomes
binding by proposal and acceptance. Should these conditions be absent the lease
is null and void, and when the lease is nullified it is for the lessor to take possession
of his property and to lease it to another ; and God knows best.
(Signed and sealed.) Abdul Karim bin Ahmed, servant of the August Shera
Law, by his own hand.
And if the owner of the property wishes to turn out the lessee, he can turn him
out immediately.
(Signed and sealed.) Abdul Karim, servant of the Shera Law at Qais,
{ix). The answer. Praise be to God, Who leads to the right!
This lease, as it is mentioned in the question, is not in accord with the precepts
of the August Shera and is hull and void and invalid. So, the owner of the property
has the option to return to his property and he has the absolute possession
thereof and can use his property in any manner that he may wish. He has the
option (to do so), and the lessee has no right or title in that property. And whatever
is invalid according to the August Shera is to be considered as non-existent.
Should the proprietor desire to turn out the lessee from that place, he can do so, and
there is nothing to bind the owner of the place. And God knows more,
(Signed and sealed.) The humblest and poor Abdul Rahman bin Abdul
Ghafoor-el -Mufti.
