(Vol. ii. p. 93.) A sillim sale [SILLIM], or a sale in trust, of jewels and marine shells, is not lawful, because the unities of these vary in their value. (Vol. ii. p. 539.) In the partition of property, jewels must not be divided by the Qazi, but by mutual arrangement in the family, because of the great difference in the actual value of the jewels. (Vol. iv. 13.)
