Is it permissible to purchase land from heirs who own 80% of it, while the buyer knows that the heir who owns 20% and did not agree to the sale intends to exercise preemption after the sale is completed? And is it permissible for the buyer to pay a price higher than the agreed-upon price to increase the chances of retaining the land?
Fraud is prohibited to invalidate the right of pre-emption, such as showing a price higher than what the buyer and seller agreed upon. However, if the buyer actually pays more than the market value due to his need and desire, there is no objection to that, and the pre-emptor has the option to take it at this price or leave it.
