Article 147 of Civil Code

English translation

1 - If a contracting party makes a mistake that induces him to consent to the contract, such that he would not have given his consent but for that mistake, he may request annulment of the contract if the other contracting party made the same mistake with him without an influence on his part that could have been remedied, or knew that he had made it, or could easily have discerned that from him. 2 - In donations, however, annulment may be requested without regard to the other contracting party's participation in the mistake or knowledge of its occurrence.
Arabic original
1 - إذا وقع المتعاقد في غلط دفعه إلى ارتضاء العقد, بحيث أنـه لـولا وقوعــه فيـه لما صدر عنه الرضاء, فإنه يجوز له طلب إبطال العقد, إذا كان المتعاقد الآخر قد وقع معه في نفس الغلـط بـدون تـأثير منه كان من الممكن تداركه, أو علم بوقوعـه فيه, أو كان من السهل عليه أن يتبين عنه ذلك. ٢ - على أنه في التبرعات, يجوز طلب الإبطال, دون اعتبار المشاركة المتعاقد الآخر في الغلط أو علمه بحصوله.
