English translation of the principle

The addressee of the provisions of Articles 13 and 14 of Law 5/1959 is the authority entrusted with registration procedures; thus, it alone is bound, when registering instruments, by what is contained therein and the evidence recorded therein. This does not affect the courts’ right, when hearing actions to establish ownership, to rely on any evidence.
Arabic original
المعني بالخطاب في نص المادتين ١٣، ١٤ ق ٥/١٩٥٩ هو الجهة المنوط بها إجراءات التسجيل فتلتزم وحدها في تسجيل المحررات بما ورد بها والأدلة المحررة بها. عدم مساس ذلك بحق المحاكم عند نظر دعاوى إثبات الملكية في الأخذ بأي دليل.
