When does a contract of muzara'a terminate and what happens if the period expires before the crop matures? 
A contract of muzara'a terminates upon the expiration of its period. If the period expires before the crop matures, the farmer may keep the crop there until it is mature. In this case, the farmer is liable to pay a fair rent for the land, which is equivalent to his share in the proceeds for the subsequent period. Additionally, the farmer is responsible for the necessary expenditures on the crop according to Federal Law No.
