Then `AbdurRahman bin `Auf told him that Allah's Apostle said, If you hear the news of an outbreak of an epidemic (plague) in a certain place, do not enter that place: and if the epidemic falls in a place while you are present in it, do not leave that place to escape from the epidemic. So `Umar returned from Sargh.

A man said, Preemption is only for the neighbor, and then he makes invalid what he has confirmed. He said, If someone wants to buy a house and being afraid that the neighbor (of the house) may buy it through preemption, he buys one share out of one hundred shares of the house and then buys the rest of the house, then the neighbor can only have the right of preemption for the first share but not for the rest of the house; and the buyer may play such a trick in this case.

Abu Rafi' said to Al-Miswar, Won't you order this (i.e. Sa'd) to buy my house which is in my yard? Sa'd said, I will not offer more than four hundred in installments over a fixed period. Abu Rafi said, I was offered five hundred cash but I refused. Had I not heard the Prophet saying, 'A neighbor is more entitled to receive the care of his neighbor,' I would not have sold it to you. The narrator said, to Sufyan: Ma'mar did not say so. Sufyan said, But he did say so to me. Some people said, If someone wants to sell a house and deprived somebody of the right of preemption, he has the right to play a trick to render the preemption invalid. And that is by giving the house to the buyer as a present and marking its boundaries and giving it to him. The buyer then gives the seller one-thousand Dirham as compensation in which case the preemptor loses his right of preemption.
