وَمَنْ نَظَرَ إِلَى وَجْهِ الصُّبْرَةِ، أَوْ إِلَى ظَاهِرِ الثَّوْبِ مَطْوِيًّا، أَوْ إِلَى وَجْهِ الْجَارِيَةِ، أَوْ إِلَى وَجْهِ الدَّابَّةِ وَكَفَلِهَا فَلَا خِيَارَ لَهُ
Translation: Seeing the exposed part of a grain heap, the outside of a folded fabric, a female slave’s face in the historical example, or an animal’s face and hindquarter removes the inspection option under these specified rules.
The guiding idea is viewing the portion that conventionally reveals what matters about the goods. Not every object requires identical exposure.
Quduri provides four distinct examples. Their shared lesson is adequate recognition of the relevant qualities, not the blanket rule that a casual glance always suffices.
The reference to an enslaved woman belongs to a historical legal context and is not an endorsement of human sale today.
