Scholars differed regarding the ruling on the mortgagor leasing the mortgaged property without the mortgagee's permission. Some, like Ibn Qudamah, prohibited it absolutely. Others, like Malik and Al-Shafi'i, permitted it if the lease period ends before the debt becomes due, and this is the preferred view if the lessee is trustworthy.
