Question:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Person A has something to sell. Person B offered to sell on his behalf. Person A accepted the offer and handed person B the item. When person B went to sell the item, he was robbed. Question: is person B dhaamin\/liable for the stolen item?<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful<\/strong><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Answer:<\/strong><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

There is a Fiqhi <\/em>principle; that it is not permissible for anyone to transact in the property of another without their permission. If one does so, without the owner\u2019s permission and the item gets destroyed (or in this case stolen) then this person will be liable for the damage or loss. [Al-Qawaidu Al-Fiqhiyah<\/em>: page 99] [1]<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As person B had the owner’s (person A\u2019s) permission to conduct the sale on behalf of person A, he now cannot be held liable for the loss incurred unless the loss occurred due to gross negligence on the part of person B.<\/span><\/p>\n
