Lease by the Deputy or the Guardian
Issue No.1851- A person can become the agent of another person and rent out his property on his behalf. Similarly, the legal guardian of a minor can give his property on lease, provided that it is in his interest, and the obligatory precaution is that the period after his maturity [1] should not be included in the lease agreement unless the minor’s interest is not realized otherwise. In case the minor has no guardian, one should get the Mujtahid’s permission, and if he does not have access to a just Mujtahid or his representative, he should get the permission of a just believer who can observe the interest of the minor.
