That he heard Usama bin Zaid speaking to Sa`d, saying, "Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) mentioned the plague and
said, 'It is a means of punishment with which some nations were punished and some of it has
remained, and it appears now and then. So whoever hears that there is an outbreak of plague in some
land, he should not go to that land, and if the plague breaks out in the land where one is already
present, one should not run away from that land, escaping from the plague."

The Prophet (ﷺ) has decreed that preemption is valid in all cases where the real estate concerned has not
been divided, but if the boundaries are established and the ways are made, then there is no preemption.
A man said, "Preemption is only for the neighbor," and then he makes invalid what he has confirmed.
He said, "If someone wants to buy a house and being afraid that the neighbor (of the house) may buy
it through preemption, he buys one share out of one hundred shares of the house and then buys the rest
of the house, then the neighbor can only have the right of preemption for the first share but not for the
rest of the house; and the buyer may play such a trick in this case."
