English translation of the principle

Every request or ground of defense advanced by a party before the court and whose determination he seeks. The court must respond to it with specific reasons; otherwise its judgment is devoid of reasons and deficient in explanation. An example concerning a material defense which the judgment neither set out nor answered, thereby invalidating it and requiring its cassation. - 723 - Procedure
Arabic original
كل طلب أو وجه دفاع يدلي به الخصم أمام المحكمة ويطلب الفصل فيه. وجوب أن تجيب عليه بأسباب خاصة وإلاّ كان حكمها خالياً من الأسباب وقاصر البيان. مثال بشأن دفاع جوهري لم يعرض له الحكم لا إيراداً ولا رداً بما يبطله ويوجب تمييزه. - ٧٢٣ - المرافعات
