Shufa (pre-emption) is valid if the property is undivided, but if the limits become defined, then there is no pre-emption.

2257. Narrated Jābir bin 'Abdullāh رضي الله عنه: Allāh's Messenger ﷺ gave the verdict of pre-emption (Shufa) for every undivided joint thing (property). But if the limits are defined (or demarcated) or the ways and streets are fixed, then there is no pre-emption.

Arabic text

2257 - حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الوَاحِدِ، حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا، قَالَ: «قَضَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالشُّفْعَةِ فِي كُلِّ مَا لَمْ يُقْسَمْ، فَإِذَا وَقَعَتِ الحُدُودُ، وَصُرِّفَتْ الطُّرُقُ فَلاَ شُفْعَةَ»
