"The Messenger of Allah said: 'No man is bound by a transaction involving the sale of something that he does not possess.'''

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَيْسَ عَلَى رَجُلٍ بَيْعٌ فِيمَا لاَ يَمْلِكُ

[AI] From the Prophet ﷺ , he said: "A man does not have the right to divorce in that which he does not possess, nor does he have the right to emancipate in that which he does not possess, nor does he have the right to sell in that which he does not possess."

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ لَيْسَ عَلَى رَجُلٍ طَلَاقٌ فِيمَالَا يَمْلِكُ وَلَا عَتَاقٌ فِيمَا لَا يَمْلِكُ وَلَا بَيْعٌ فِيمَا لَا يَمْلِكُ

[AI] About the Prophet ﷺ said: "There is no divorce in what you do not possess, there is no freedom in what you do not possess, there is no vow in what you do not possess, and there is no vow in disobedience to Allah."

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ لَا طَلَاقَ فِيمَا لَا تَمْلِكُونَ وَلَا عَتَاقَ فِيمَا لَا تَمْلِكُونَ وَلَا نَذْرَ فِيمَا لَا تَمْلِكُونَ وَلَا نَذْرَ فِي مَعْصِيَةِ اللهِ

Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab from Irak ibn Malik and Sulayman ibn Yasar that a man of the Banu Sad ibn Layth was running a horse and it trod on the finger of a man from the Juhayna tribe. It bled profusely, and he died. Umar ibn al-Khattab said to those against whom the claim was made. "Do you swear by Allah with fifty oaths that he did not die of it?" They refused and stopped themselves from doing it. He said to the others, "Will you take an oath?" They refused, so Umar ibn al-Khattab gave a judgement that the Banu Sad had to pay half the full blood-money. Malik said, "One does not act on this."

أَنَّ رَجُلاً مِنْ بَنِي سَعْدِ بْنِ لَيْثٍ أَجْرَى فَرَسًا فَوَطِئَ عَلَى إِصْبَعِ رَجُلٍ مِنْ جُهَيْنَةَ فَنُزِيَ مِنْهَا فَمَاتَ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ لِلَّذِي ادُّعِيَ عَلَيْهِمْ أَتَحْلِفُونَ بِاللَّهِ خَمْسِينَ يَمِينًا مَا مَاتَ مِنْهَا فَأَبَوْا وَتَحَرَّجُوا وَقَالَ لِلآخَرِينَ أَتَحْلِفُونَ أَنْتُمْ فَأَبَوْا فَقَضَى عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ بِشَطْرِ الدِّيَةِ عَلَى السَّعْدِيِّينَ قَالَ مَالِكٌ وَلَيْسَ الْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا

[AI] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "There is no divorce in what one does not possess, and there is no manumission in what one does not possess."

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «لَا طَلَاقَ فِيمَا لَا يَمْلِكُ وَلَا عَتَاقَةَ فِيمَا لَا يَمْلِكُ»

[AI] On the authority of the Prophet ﷺ who said, "There is no divorce for someone who does not possess, and there is no emancipation for someone who does not possess."

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «لَا طَلَاقَ لِمَا لَا يَمْلِكُ وَلَا عَتَاقَ لِمَنْ لَا يَمْلِكُ»

"ليسَ عَلى رَجُلٍ بَيعٌ فيمَا لا يَمْلكُ".

"لَيسَ عَلَى رَجُلٍ طَلاق فيمَا لا يَمْلكُ، وَلَا عَتَاقٌ فيمَا لَا يَمْلكُ، وَلَا بَيعٌ فِيمَا لَا يَمْلِكُ".

"لا نَذْرَ لابنِ آدَمَ فِيمَا لا يَمْلِكُ، وَلا عِتْقَ لَهُ فِيمَا لا يَمْلِكُ، وَلا طَلاقَ لَهُ فِيمَا لا يَمْلِكُ".
