Description

Principles of Muhammadan Law By D F Mulla. This work has been manually deigned for the use ‘of students, as a guide to their study of Mahomedan Law. Hence, for a speedy and convenient grasp of its principles?, I have cast them in a series of distinct propositions, systematically” arranged in the order of collective sections, illustrated by decided cases applicable to each section. The language of judgments to be found in the recognized reports so far as practicable, been faithfully reproduced in the statement of each proposition, in order to impart to. it the imprimatur of authoritative law, and where such sources have failed, I have fallen back upon the translations of the Hadiths and the Fatwas. Alumgiri, with such modifications as were necessary or proper for the requirements of modern law. The alliterative cases have likewise been imported,almost all,from the same Reports throughout the work, except in the Chapter on Inheritance. There is a citation of authority for every proposition I have set out ; and no important decisions have been missed, while enactments amending or repealing the ancient rules have been noted in their appropriate place.

Talab-e-mowasibat and Talab-e-Ishaad

From the deposition of PW 1 it is clear that he did not assert that immediately after he came to know about the sale in question demanded preemption of the land transferred by the kabala in question by jumping and thus talab-e-mowasibat was observed and then he, in presence of the two witnesses by referring to his said immediate demand of preemption requested the seller or the buyer or on the land transferred to accept the kabala money and execute and register the necessary sale deed in favour of the plaintiffs and thus strictly observed the formalities of talab-e-Ishaad and therefore, the plaintiffs were entitled to file the suit for preemption.

There may not be presumption of jointness of family in the Muslim Law, but the fact has been established that after the death of Faizuddin Sheikh, father of the plaintiffs and defendant No.l, the members of Faiz-uddin's family were in one mess and the income of the property left by Faizuddin was in the common fund of the plaintiffs and the defendant No.l and in the background of the said fact the lower appellate Court observed that by the money of the joint fund of the plaintiffs and the defendant No.l the auction purchase was made. It was not established that the defendant No.2 had any independent source of income.

On appraisal of evidence of PW 1 Moijan Bibi, and it appears that there is no specific evidence that she did not put her left thumb impression in the register book and she also failed to show that her signature appears in the registered book is not her signature. Therefore, learned Judge of Court of appeal below as a final Court of facts came to a definite findings that deed of gift and Heba-bil-Ewaz were executed by plaintiffs which is correct. The trial Court without considering the materials on record, particularly transfer of Land by deed of Arponnama in favour of plaintiffs, decreed both the suits which are not correct.

Section 35

According to Mullah's Mohammedan Law charge of lian does not of itself terminate the marriage. The marriage continuous until the decree is passed. In this case where husband made allegation against his wife of adultery, so in such a situation there is no alternative but to pass an order of separation (divorce).

A Moham­medan cannot dispose of more than V3rd of his properties by way of gift or wasiatnama of his estate unless the heirs give consent before or after the death of the testator. Plaintiff's personal property and his home­stead also cannot be included in the wasiatnama but the same was included in the wasiatnama even testator's sister's property was included in the wasiatnama which shows that the testator was not in sound mind when he executed and registered the wasiatnama

Section 231

Admittedly, the aforesaid suits were heard analogously. But the pre-emptor failed to point out on which portion of the 'A' Schedule land the alleged demands were made. This is also fatal for the pre-emptor. PW 1 further stated in cross that be so how he could perform the Talab in accordance with the provisions of Muslim Law. Besides, PW 2 and PW 3 are silent about the reference of Talab-i-Muwsibat while making Talab-i-Ishhad. The consistent view of all the superior courts of the sub-continent is that at the time ofmaking demand non-reference to the first demand is fatal to the case of the claimant of the right of pre-emption. For the foregoing reasons the plaintiffs-respondents have miserably failed to prove the performance of the Talabs in the instant case which is fatal for the plaintiffs.

Section 231

In Article 28(1) of the Constitution it has been laid down that the State shall not discriminate against any citizen on grounds only of religion, race, caste, sex or place of birth. It, thus, appears that Muslim Law of pre-emption so far it is applicable to the urban property is discrimi­natory and a Muslim citizen is placed at a higher plain than the other non-Muslim citizens of the State and this also affects the secular nature of the Republic. Muslim law of pre-emption in so far as it relates to the town property is void on the ground that it discri­minates between a citizen and a citizen on the ground of religion and faith, inasmcuh as under section 24 of the Act a non-Muslim contiguous land holder cannot maintain an action for pre-emption but a Muslim can. The law of pre-emption as laid down in section 231(3) in Mullah's Principles of Moham­medan Law, i.e. right to pre-empt a sale as a Shafi-i-Jar which is right of pre-emption based on vicinage, appears to be unconstitutional and offends the provision of Article 42(1) read with Article 31 of the Constitution as it imposes an unreasonable restriction on power of alienation of property and/or acquiring property. So, the provisions of Muslim law of pre-emption, so far it relates to Shafi-i-Jar, is declared to be void as it offends Article 42(1) of the Constitution.

Section 231

In the instant case, vendor is a company so also is one of the vendees i.e. plaintiff No. 1 is a company and they are incapable of having any faith in any religion. Therefore, in the facts and circumstances of the case there is no scope to invoke the provisions of Suffa under the Muslim Law. The suits are misconceived and not maintain­able in their present forms and manner. Only a natural person can become a Musalman and profess the faith of Islam. A juridical person is incapable of following any religion. It is true plaintiff No. 2 is a natural person but the suits as framed cannot be maintained by him solely as there is no averments in the plaint nor in evidence to show contiguity of his land with the suit land. The plaintiffs cannot invoke the right of Suffa in the facts and circumstances of the case. It is now well established that in a pre-emption suit the plaintiff must establish his exclusive ownership into the contiguous land as Shafi-i-jar. Therefore, finding of the trial Court that the plaintiffs are the owners of the 'B' Schedule land is erroneous and against weight of evidence. Withholding the impartial witness who admittedly accompa­nied PW 1 on 9-3-1997 and 19-3-1997 also speaks volumes against the plaintiffs and it appears to us to be a fit case where adverse presumption can be drawn that if any of the neutral persons would have been examined they would hot support the case of the plaintiffs.

Section 231—Barred by limitation

The instant suit is under the Muslim Law. No doubt, in the agreement it is stipulated that the sale shall not be completed unless the sale deed is registered. But this stipulation cannot stand in the way of the pre-emptor if he wants to pre-empt the sale under the Muslim Law. In the present case, the plaintiff has instituted the suit under the Muslim Law but it appears that he made the demands long after the sale was completed under the Muslim Law. The admitted position is that the agreement Exhibit A was executed on 16-8-1995 and part payment was also made on that day and physical possession of the property was also handed over to the vendee. On receipt of payment of full consideration the sale deed was executed and presented for registration on 7-3-1996 and the suit was filed on 30-6-1997 which is well beyond the period of limitation. It thus appears that the suits are also barred by limitation but unfortunately, this material legal aspect of the case was totally lost sight of by the trial Court and in arriving at a finding that the suit is not barred by limitation it erroneously relied on the provisions of General Law which has no manner of application to the instant case.

Section 231

Under the Muslim Law the right of pre-emption is allowed to a claimant in consideration of his necessity and not as a matter of luxury. This principle should always be kept in mind while determining the claim of pre-emption. The plaintiffs are already owners of vast tract of lands i.e. the 'W Schedule land. They have already erected two industries in two different portions of the 'B' Schedule land and unutilised lands are still there. The plaintiffs have never explained why they need the suit land. The suit land is not 'Aqar' or houses or small land. 'Aqar' or land alone can be the subject matter of pre­emption where the subject matter of pre­emption consists of a share in a village or a large estate. But neither a neighbour who is not a co-sharer nor a participator in appendages can claim it on the ground of merely of vicinage.

Section 231

Both the Courts below concurrently found that the plaintiff has discharged his onus to observe the legal formalities i.e. Talab-i-Mousibat and Talab-i-Ishad in demanding the suit land. There is no reason to disturb the concurrent findings arrived at by the Courts below.

Bangladesh Krishi Bank vs Kazi Liakat Ali 11 BLC 329.

The appellate Court correctly found that the payment of consideration at a later day i.e. handing over of Holy Quran after 4 days, did not make the Heba-bil-ewaj invalid. It appears that the payment of consideration in advance and payment of consideration subsequently could constitute valid Heba-bil-ewaj if the other two essential elements i.e. actual payment of consideration and the intention of the donor to divest itself from the title really exist. Although section 168 of Mulla's Principles of Mohamadan Law is silent on the point of actual time of payment of consideration in order to make a valid Heba-bil-ewaj yet the superior Courts of this Sub-continent held that the consideration in Heba-bil-ewaj may be made at any time, be itin advance or afterwards. The shifting of onus upon the defendant No.l in respect of proving the genuineness of 2nd deed of Heba-bil-ewaj dated 3-1-1978 was correctly done which the defendant No.l miserably failed to discharge and, as such, the genuine­ness of the 2nd deed of Heba-bil-ewaj dated 3-1-1978 has not been proved. The appellate Court without considering this aspect allowed the appeal which needs interference by this Court.

Wasiatnama

Wasiatnama legally takes effect after the death of propositus but in present case the wasiatnama speaks of taking effect during the lifetime of propositus rendering it to be a void document. Moreso, the wasiatnama in question contains some conditions contrary to the provisions of Mohammedan Law and stands as a void document and such void document needs no declaration for setting-aside. Before acquiring title to the property one cannot transfer it to another and if it is done so, it would be a void document.
