The concluding rulings of this book establish four distinctions:
1. Release is not debt forgiveness: custody can end while liability continues.
2. Collection is not control of travel or dealing: a claim does not create unlimited personal authority.
3. Misconduct is not financial incapacity: wrongdoing alone does not invalidate competent property management.
4. Identifying goods is not present ownership: after delivery, the unpaid seller may rank with other creditors.
This completes the consecutive substantive text of Kitab al-Hajr. The next book is Kitab al-Iqrar.
