Lending the Usurped Property Knowing it is Usupred
Issue No. 2022- If a person borrows something about which he knows that it has been usurped, and it is lost or damaged while in his possession, the rightful owner can demand compensation for that property, and if he does not have access to him, he should demand compensation from the person who usurped it. The borrower should also pay for the benefits which he has derived from it. In case the borrower did not know that the property was usurped, and if the rightful owner receives from the borrower compensation for damage or lost property or for the benefits derived from it, the borrower can demand what he has paid to the rightful owner from the lender who had usurped the property, provided that the lender had not stipulated that if the property was lost or damaged, the borrower would be responsible, and that the borrowed item should not have been made of gold or silver.
