“The neighbor has more right to preemption of his neighbor, so let him wait for him even if he is absent, if they share a path.”  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْجَارُ أَحَقُّ بِشُفْعَةِ جَارِهِ يَنْتَظِرُ بِهَا إِنْ كَانَ غَائِبًا إِذَا كَانَ طَرِيقُهُمَا وَاحِدًا  

“The neighbor has more right to property that is near.”  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ الْجَارُ أَحَقُّ بِسَقَبِهِ  

“I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, (what do you think of) land owned by only one person but this land has neighbors?' He said: 'The neighbor has more right to property that is near.' ”  

قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَرْضٌ لَيْسَ فِيهَا لأَحَدٍ قِسْمٌ وَلاَ شِرْكٌ إِلاَّ الْجِوَارُ قَالَ الْجَارُ أَحَقُّ بِسَقَبِهِ
