Narrated Abu Rafi' (RA):

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: "The neighbor has more right (to be given preference) to the property which is near to him." [al-Bukhari reported it, and there is a story related to it].

وَعَنْ أَبِي رَافِعٍ ‏- رضى الله عنه ‏- قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ ‏- صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏-{ اَلْجَارُ أَحَقُّ بِصَقَبِهِ } أَخْرَجَهُ اَلْبُخَارِيُّ, وَفِيهِ قِصَّةٌ [1]‏ .‏
