بَابُ الْقَضَاءِ فِيمَنِ ابْتَاعَ ثَوْبًا وَبِهِ عَيْبٌChapter of Judgement Regarding Buying a Defective Garment
Hadith 1452Q7
قَالَ مَالِكٌ : إِذَا ابْتَاعَ الرَّجُلُ ثَوْبًا وَبِهِ عَيْبٌ مِنْ حَرْقٍ أَوْ غَيْرِهِ قَدْ عَلِمَهُ الْبَائِعُ. فَشُهِدَ عَلَيْهِ بِذَلِكَ. أَوْ أَقَرَّ بِهِ. فَأَحْدَثَ فِيهِ الَّذِي ابْتَاعَهُ حَدَثًا مِنْ تَقْطِيعٍ يُنَقِّصُ ثَمَنَ الثَّوْبِ. ثُمَّ عَلِمَ الْمُبْتَاعُ بِالْعَيْبِ. فَهُوَ رَدٌّ عَلَى الْبَائِعِ. وَلَيْسَ عَلَى الَّذِي ابْتَاعَهُ غُرْمٌ فِي تَقْطِيعِهِ إِيَّاهُ. ¤
Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said that when a person buys a cloth and a defect is found in it, such as it being torn or any other defect that was present with the seller, proven by the testimony of witnesses or by the seller’s admission, and now the buyer has made use of the cloth, such as cutting or sewing it, which has reduced the value of the cloth, then if the defect becomes known to him, he may return the cloth to the seller, and the buyer will not be liable for the cutting.
