It was narrated from Jabir that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:

“The neighbor has more right to preemption of his neighbor, so let him wait for him even if he is absent, if they share a path.”

ARABIC

‏ الْجَارُ أَحَقُّ بِشُفْعَةِ جَارِهِ يَنْتَظِرُ بِهَا إِنْ كَانَ غَائِبًا إِذَا كَانَ طَرِيقُهُمَا وَاحِدًا ‏
