Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. If a man leases his house for a specified period and a specified amount, and then sells this house to another person, apart from the study. If a man leases his house for a specified period and a specified amount, and then sells this house to another person, and some of the lease period remains, is the buyer entitled to increase the rent during this period?
Answer:
No. He has that right once the period has ended; he can say, “Either you leave, or you accept the increase.” But if some of the period remains, the buyer is not allowed to change the agreed amount in any way. The agreed amount remains as it is, with no increase. Yes.
