Article 759 of Civil Code

English translation

1 - If there are multiple sureties under a single contract securing the same debt and the same debtor, and they are not jointly and severally liable among themselves, the debt shall be divided equally among them unless the contract specifies the amount secured by each. 2 - If the sureties undertake their obligations under successive contracts, each shall be liable for the entire debt unless he reserves the benefit of division.
Arabic original
١ - إذا تعدد الكفلاء بعقد واحد وكفلوا نفس الدين ونفس المدين, وكانوا غير متضامنين فيما بينهم, قسم الدين عليهم بالتساوي ما لم يبين العقد مقدار ما يكفل كل منهم. ٢ - فإذا التزم الكفلاء بعقود متوالية, كان كل منهم مسئولا عن الدين كله ما لم يحتفظ لنفسه بحق التقسيم.
