What is the ruling on a seller of land stipulating to the buyer that he (the buyer) may not sell his land except with the seller's permission, and that the seller has priority in purchasing it, and what are the consequences of not fulfilling this condition?

The seller's condition upon the buyer not to sell the item except with his permission, or not to sell it except to him, is a void condition, because it contradicts the essence of the sales contract. Thus, the sale becomes void. It was also said: the sale is valid and the condition is void, and according to this opinion, there is no obligation to fulfill this condition.
