If the subject of assignment (Hawalah) is a contractual debt and the contract dissolves, what is the effect of dissolution on the assignment of debt (Hawalah)? Whether the assignment will dissolve subordinate or not?
There are different ideas in Fiqh. This matter has been asserted in the Art. 733 of civil code. But its concept (purport) is ambiguous and vague. So the interpretation on each of the principle theories (dissolution and validity), is possible. With regard to the foundations of this Article, we will conclude that the dissolution of the contract (i.e. sale) has no effect on the assignment (Hawalah), and it will remain valid .We also attempt to explain the abstruse and uncertain parts of the Art. 733 and specify the foundations of the accepted theory.
