Does the mechanic guarantee parts stolen from the car, and is the car considered to be like a trust in custody?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
If the mechanic is negligent in safeguarding the car, he is liable for whatever is damaged or stolen from it. However, if he is not negligent, there is a difference of opinion among scholars regarding his liability for what is stolen from it. Therefore, the most cautious approach is not to hold him liable unless he was negligent.
