This paper attempts to analyze the Sharīʻah compatibility of laws governing the ‘contracts of sale’ in Pakistan. The Transfer of Property Act, 1882 deals with the contracts of sale for immoveable property while the Sale of Goods Act, 1930 regulates the sale transactions involving goods or moveable property. This paper investigates the Sharīʻah compatibility of the provisions of two statutes. Three core transactions under the above mentioned legal regime have been identified to be incompatible with the Sharīʻah rules. The study finds that (i) sections 54 and 56 of Transfer of Property , 1882; and (ii) sections 5 and 6(2) of the Sale of Goods Act, 1930 to be incompatible with Sharīʻah rules and need to be amended accordingly to bring the ‘sale contract’ in conformity with Sharīʻah principles. This study further finds the Marshalling of mortgaged property to be inconsonant with Shari’ah principles as it does not require the consent of mortgager to sell the mortgaged property and needs to be brought in conformity with Sharīʻah principles.
