LessonsKitab al-Buyu: Houses, Land, Trees, Crops and Fruit OwnershipQuiz

Suppose a field has old mango trees along its edge and a standing wheat crop in the middle. The land is sold without any specific term about the crop.

Under these two clauses:
1. The permanent mango trees pass with the land.
2. The standing wheat crop does not pass automatically.

Different things growing on the same plot can therefore belong to different owners following the land sale.
