English translation of the principle

The probative force of an official instrument. It depends on the particulars recorded therein. An interested party may prove the contrary of its contents by all means of proof, and may challenge it on grounds of simulation or ineffectiveness of the disposition, even if registered, because registration does not immunize it from challenge on grounds of its defects.
Arabic original
حجية الورقة الرسمية. توقفها على ما أثبت بها من بيانات. لصاحب المصلحة إثبات عكس ما بها بكافة طرق الإثبات فله أن يطعن عليها بالصورية أو عدم نفاذ التصرف ولو كان مسجلاً لأن التسجيل لا يعصمه من الطعن عليه بما يعيبه.
