Article 385 of Civil Code

English translation

If a debtor refers his creditor to the depositary by an assignment restricted to the specific thing deposited with him, and the deposit then perishes before being delivered to the assignee without fault on the depositary's part, the assignment shall thereby be dissolved. However, if the deposit is adjudged to belong to a third party, the assignment shall be void.
Arabic original
إذا أحال المدين دائنة على الوديع حوالة مقيدة بالعين المودعة عنده، ثم هلكــت الوديعة قبل أدائها للمحال له بغير خطأ من الوديع، ترتب على ذلك انفساخ الحوالة، أما إذا استحقت الوديعة للغير تبطل الحوالة.
