Preference among neighbors
Page 284
Q: Does relative neighbor have more right than a close Muslim neighbor, who is not a relative? Do my natives who live far away have preference over Muslims who live in the same neighborhood?
A: Preference is established upon three bases: relativity, Islam and neighboring.
A neighbor may have three rights, when he is a relative Muslim neighbor; he has the right of Islam, neighboring, and relativity.
A neighbor may have two rights when he is a Muslim neighbor or a non­Muslim relative; the former has the right of Islam and neighboring and the latter has the right of neighboring and relativity.
A neighbor may have one right when he is non­Muslim neighbor, who has the right of neighboring only.
