Quduri places the duty of immediate removal immediately after mentioning fruit both before and after signs of suitability. At the level of his main text, removal is not confined to green fruit.
Example: someone buys existing ripe dates but not the palms. Under the unqualified wording, the buyer must release the seller's trees.
Later jurists discuss custom and special cases involving fully developed fruit. Those qualifications should be distinguished from Quduri's straightforward general text.
