Abstract

This article relooks at khiyar (the right to choose between continuing or aborting a
transaction) that starts to be ignored in the current business world. It covers various forms of
khiyar and the philosophy behind the concept. The importance of this right lies on the rule that a
transaction has to accord with the principle of ‘an tarâdhin (both parties are happy with a given
transaction). Khiyar is embedded in every transaction: it automatically applies. But our contempo-
rary and more complex trade world moves towards the abandonment of this right to choose. An
indication of this is the often found store policy that reads ‘an item that has been bought cannot
be returned’. This is why a serious thinking is needed to keep the khiyar exist, so justice in any
transaction can be preserved.
