The usurper's acts and special cases

After the foundations of usurpation (ghasb), this section of the fiqh encyclopedia examines the particular cases: usurped property left unused during the usurpation, the hand that follows the usurper's hand (buyer, lessee, borrower, depositary, donee), liability for breaking a cross, recovering one's right by one's own hand, then the disputes between the usurper and the owner over the value, the loss and the return of the property. The positions of the four schools are reported with their classical references.
